Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns �
� Can I use this for both AC and DC projects? Yes. While mini rocker switches are frequently used in AC 250V/125V domestic appliances, they are also perfectly suitable for low-voltage DC applications, such as 12V automotive or 5V-24V DIY electronics, provided the current draw remains within the switch's rated limit.
Which wire goes where on a 2-pin switch? Because this is a simple SPST (Single Pole Single Throw) switch, it acts as a "bridge". You simply cut your "Live" (AC) or "Positive" (DC) wire and connect one end to each pin; when the switch is ON, it joins the two wires together to complete the circuit.
� Is this switch illuminated? No. This specific 2-pin model is a non-illuminated version. Illuminated switches typically require a 3rd pin to power an internal light. If you need a switch that glows when active, look for our 3-pin or 4-pin illuminated rocker series.
