CB500/550 / toggle switch amperage?
« on: September 07, 2018, 02:41:21 PM »
Hello all!
I need to fit a toggle switch in place of my ignition switch temporarily (awaiting ignition switch replacement). The Red and Black wires will be used on the toggle. Two things - is this safe to ride with? And if it is, what amperage will the switch need to be? I can't seem to find one that goes above 25amps for a 12v circuit. Will that be enough?
Will also look into installing one permanently as an anti theft kill switch hidden somewhere on the bike.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Cheers
