Is it safe to use the switch indoors as long as it is used indoors
It is possible to use these switches for lighting that runs on 12 volts. To ensure the lighting amperage does not exceed the switch rating, you should check the total lighting amperage.
Here is the new switch I replaced the old one with. A male lug is located on the back of the switch. There were female lugs on the wire, which made it easy to disconnect the old switch and connect the new one.
It is not for use in a RV, but only inside

Although there is a slight difference between the product image and the actual product, it isn't that great. There is a sense of solidity and smoothness in the switches themselves. This casing is neither too light nor too heavy, but it also isn't too cheap. It would be a good idea to take the cover off slowly, as the prongs on the backing plate could easily break. Then there might not be any need to take it off if you do your install correctly and are gentle when putting the cover on, The hope is that this will be the case. In the event that this product works, I've got a couple more areas to try it out. You should give them a chance. This should be a good experience for you.
It actually took me much longer to install than I expected because I thought it would be extremely difficult. As the switch is as good as the factory installed unit, we are now considering replacing all the switches. Thanks so much!.
It happened that two of the switches in my 30 year old fifth wheel went bad. The buttons I got to replace the old ones are large (which is helpful since I suffer from neuropathy of the The only cutting I had to do was to cut a few spaces in the wall to fit them, but that was easy with a razor blade. I love how they look and how smooth they are, and I also like how quiet they are. I plan to replace all of the 12 volt switches in my fifth wheel with these units. As well, the results are much better than the original video.
As the room layout of our bathroom allowed us to install a double switch outside the door, we were able to extend the control for the lights to this switch. I can now turn on either the conventional Led light or the super bright Kohree 12V Led RV Ceiling Dome light, or even both of them, with no need to reach upwards.
Connecting these is very challenging. I think I may have found the root cause of the issue. Those connectors are metric, as far as I know. There is an Amazon listing for these. Currently available in 315Pcs. Eighth of April. Eighth of June. The 3mm Male Female Spade Connectors Wire Crimp Terminal Block with Insulation.
The new version works well, looks a thousand times better than its predecessor, and covers almost all of the hogged-down areas I made my 5th wheel travel trailer bel grande with out holes made by monkeys at Coachmen. The moon was in sight for Alice, as the rocks rocked.
I like the style of the switch, it matches the RV standard. In contrast to industry standards of 1/4", the blades of these contact terminals are narrower. The standard 1/4" spade connectors will fit on and are held in place correctly.
I was able to remove the space connectors from the older ones and slide the new ones on. To fit properly the new switches in the wall, I had to expand the wall hole. There is an attractive feel and look to the buttons, and they work very well.
