I know someone has an answer. I need to find out if I'm drawing power when
my master switch is off. Something is quirky and I want to be able to hook
something up in the batteries position to find out if anything is drawing
little bits of power. Any one know of a simple instrument?

Yes. An ampmeter in series with the battery with the master switch off
should show zero current.
Try the larger ranges (10 Amps, for example) first, so you don't pop the
fuses in your meter.
