10A 250V AC SPDT ON-OFF Illuminated Round Rocker Switch for Power Control
The 10A 250V AC SPDT ON-OFF Round Rocker Switch with Light is a compact panel-mount switch designed for convenient ON/OFF power control in electronic, automotive, robotics, and DIY applications. The switch features an illuminated rocker that makes the switch status easy to identify during operation. Its ON/OFF positions are clearly marked with I and O, providing simple and intuitive control. The snap-in mounting design allows the switch to be installed into a suitable panel or enclosure without requiring additional screws or nuts. This makes it convenient for DIY projects, electrical enclosures, machines, and custom equipment. With an SPDT structure and ON-OFF switching mode, it can be used for various power-control applications, including DC motors, robotics projects, automotive equipment, water dispensers, and machines.
The switch is available in multiple colours, depending on available stock.
Important: The supplied rough description mentions both 6A 250V and 10A 250V. MakerBazar's existing product listing for this specific illuminated round rocker switch identifies it as 10A 250V AC SPDT ON-OFF. The product listing below therefore uses 10A 250V as the primary rating.
