It is basically a heavy duty switch that you install between the battery and the cable on the positive side. It has a key that is used to turn it off and on and can be removed so that the car can not be started without it. Used for security and to prevent any drain on the battery. Using one is easier than disconnecting the cables at the battery, just turn the key and go.
