Who makes a high-quality waterproof push button or toggle switch I can mount on the console or otherwise for my LED running light circuit ? I'm drawing less than 1 amp . I can't locate one anywhere in the "bins".

Thank you masses of highly enlightened people .

The best place I've found is at my local Bass Pro Shop in the boat parts. I'd think any boat place would have one.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

You want a mini toggle switch like this one

and a waterproof rubber boot like this

to fit the console. No mods required.

Of course these are from an Australian supplier but you will find them easily in the USA from any electronics store.

I have six of them on my bike - two on the console and 4 in a switchbox under the tank.
