It's a toggle switch for applications where you don't want to turn things on by accident.
It's just the cover; there's no switch included (at least, I didn't get one), so I rigged up a standard toggle. When fully extended, the cover is about 1/2" long, 1/4" wide, and possibly a little more than 1/2" wide.
Yes, but not at the same time! If your amplifier has a turn on wire, connect it to the amplifier turn on lead (usually blue or blue with a white stripe on all aftermarket stereos). If your stereo is stock, it may still have an amplifier turn on wire, in which case you'll need the diagram. Have you looked at Crutchfield or Google? If you don't have access to a remote amplifier turn-on wire, the next best thing is to use an accessory wire from the key.
It's only positive in and out, which is ideal for keeping them away from a common source of electricity!

The switch lever actually detached from its housing, along with the threads, which I had never seen before. As can be seen in the photo, there appears to be no adhesive joining the threads to the switch's base, allowing the lever to simply "fall out. " It literally broke by just using it as it was intended and the only force applied to it was a flick of the finger on a track car for one of the gauges, and it was not in any way under any unnecessary pressure because it was inside the cabin tucked near the arm rest; it literally broke by just using it as it was intended and the only force applied to it was a flick of the finger. I'm disappointed because this means we won't have a gauge for the next few days while I try to arrange a replacement. I'll update this review if the seller sends a replacement, but for what is essentially an $8 toggle switch, it didn't meet my expectations. EDIT: br>br> While rewiring one switch, the second identical switch failed. The gauge lit up when the wires were connected, but it would not turn on or off when connected to the rocker switch. Either we got a bad batch that failed on the same day, or the switch's internals aren't strong enough to withstand daily use. The car had been parked and only turned on and off for track prep, so these weren't even racing conditions. I'm going to return both switches and get a new set from Autozone. If you need a long-lasting switch, skip the hassle and pick up a toggle switch from Autozone.
size SPST switch, far superior to the low-cost (in terms of price, quality, and safety) switches on the market. The cover is appealing, especially to aviation enthusiasts like myself, and it adds an additional layer of security to my application. If you don't want or need the cover, you can easily leave it off, and the switch will still be a good buy. I'm going to order a few more just in case I need them for something else.
Under the hood of an off-road vehicle, I used this switch. It's a good 2-wheel drive vehicle. positive switch with a pin The red cover mechanism is secure and functional, and the switch assembly as a whole does not appear to be poorly constructed. So far, the switch appears to be reliable and capable of handling the task at hand.
Robust and strudy are two words that come to mind when I think of this song. For the money value, it almost appears as if the manufacturer cut corners; these are one of those switches that feels like it should cost $25 or more, but then you're surprised at how cheap it is given how sturdy it is. The toggle has a sharp click and a nice click/snap sound, giving it a high-end feel. br>br>I used an indicator light to install this on my winch.
I bought this because my company said I needed a positive air shutoff in order to keep using my truck for work, even though the client didn't require it. I purchased this switch and sent a photo of it installed to the company, stating that it was a positive air shutoff. The switch worked because the company bought the lie. The sum of $5 was preferable to the sum of $700.
I'm also using it for the first time. THE VERY FIRST TIME I had to take it apart and reassemble it. The metal piece was stuck. This thing has a major quality control issue, in my opinion.
I had bought some much less expensive switches, but they failed so quickly that it was almost comical. I installed these to replace the cheapies, and they're still working great a year later, and the guard is also pretty cool.
I'm dissatisfied with the RED Safegaurd's poor design, which allows for only limited opening. I couldn't fit it on my panel because I didn't have enough room.
