Fedi #electronics folks: is it foolish to try and use one of those cheap isolated DC/DC modules to drive a bidirectional power switch made of back-to-back N-channel FETs?
In this application, the switching frequency will be glacial (switching on or off every hour at the most). So slow switching isn't really a concern provided it will turn all the way on and off each time.
The only definite downside I can see is that it'll waste some current when on.
However I can't help think that I've missed something obvious here and it simply won't work.
