Neither do Formulas. Accessories can only be run when the electrical shutoff is on. I always shut off the main power when boat is not in use. With the main power switch off, I can still run the bilge pump. Other accessories including the motor cannot be used.

Formula hour meters only run when the engine is running.

I did have a Liberator. Hour meter runs whenever the ignition switch is on even if the motor is not running. Same as my old Wellcraft.

Guess it depends on who did the wiring.
