Does anyone know where to buy some electrical toggle switches that last longer than 2-3 months...those cheap azz autozone ones suck
 
You should be asking the question "why are they burning out so fast" because it is likely that you are going beyond their rated amperage. What is it exactly you are doing with these switches?
 
ive got ones from radio shack, a the same size as a bottle cap, the trick is if u hook them up to relays theyll last a long time
 
its not the fact that there burnin up...they fall apart. i have them installed on my fuel pump hot wire, nitrous arm and liquid to air intercooler pump. Maybe its cause im switchin em too much or going to hard on them..who knows?!?
 
how are they mounted? Take car of them, I've noticed that if you flick 'em too hard sometimes you can screw up the internals, but I had my coil running off one of those switeches for almost a year on my trustee old hornet... otherwise, hit up jegs or summit and order their switches... but expect to pay out the ASS for them... like $10 for a single switch in some cases :thumbdown
