Without a doubt. Just keep an eye on the amperage. I wouldn't go much higher than 20 after seeing failed switches of this type. Even when the voltage is 24V, the current draw is 25A. Another factor to think about is the load type. If the load is inductive (i.e., if the load is inductive, the load is inductive). When turning off an electric motor, make sure you have adequate surge protection to prevent the contacts from oxidizing/burning prematurely.
No, it is not water resistant.
It can switch 220 volts, but you'll need a 220 light bulb or a series of them. Before attempting it, I would consult an electrician.
The following were the specifications I found for this item: 10 amps at 277 volts and 20 amps at 125 volts; The maximum temperature rating is 75°C. I believe that 30 amps is excessive for this item.

6" wide, according to the manufacturer's spec sheet. 10 was . It's actually 5" wide, not 5" wide. I was able to simply replace it in the unit because it was 75" wide. I contacted their technical support team to inform them of the problem, but they did not respond. Because of the spec error and their failure to respond, they received a low rating. Aside from that, the switch appears to be in good working order.
After reassembling these, they work very well, but I doubt many people will want to go to the trouble, so they may want to look for factory-made switches with a shorter throw.
It takes a lot of strength to pull the lever, which is a terrible product. The spring has a very stiff feel to it. I'm very disappointed in you. Purchase is not recommended. Instead, spend your money on a smaller colored LED rocker AC switch. Those are a lot more delectable.
Works well and appears to be very durable; however, the toggle action is a little stiff, but otherwise everything is fine.
Give it a 3 because the actual me handicap operation is difficult. br>What can't be rated is how well it stands the test of time.
Turning on the switch is extremely difficult- Off. While turning on the switch, the switch actually disintegrated in my hand.
A low-cost toggle switch that can be used for a variety of purposes.
This switch was used to replace the on/off switch on the Hoover vacuum cleaner. The hoover replacement melted, so I had to drill a hole to reposition it. So far, it's been great, and it's able to withstand the motor's high amp draw.
