Thanks Mike! I didn't know the current draw until I went back to the store and decided to try the 12V route again. I tried the same switch before with some led work lights that only pulled 2 amps total. The light burned out in about two months but the switch continued working. I was really...

I was just trying to avoid that- but it was helpful to have someone show me exactly how to wire it- even though it's very simple to do. Like they say "simple things fascinate simple minds", and this has been just fascinating.

Well, to finish this thread, I never did find a 24V toggle switch. Lots of 12V or 24V rockers witches. :-(. So, I happened to stop at Radio Shack for some other parts and discovered the clerk was a retired electrical engineer! :-) Wow, I couldn't believe it- so I asked him how to wire a resistor...

Tim292stro- I took a switch apart but no resistor inside. Once I have the correct resistor, how do I wire it in? The terminals on the switches are labeled "power", "acc", "ground".

I was going to ask you the same thing. You mentioned Carling so I checked their web site- didn't find any 24V illuminated toggle switches. Have you purchased one from Carling or did I misunderstand your post?

Thanks- I'm looking through their website but not finding illuminated toggles yet... will keep looking when I get time again.

OK, thanks- I'll check that out!

No joy at Radio Shack but thanks for the info!

Warthog- thanks for checking. I saw that once before. A little too pricey @ $23.46 and it comes with a 14V bulb- don't know what kind of bulb or if it could be changed.

Thanks everybody! Vped- how do I determine the correct resistor size? Porky- I have googled this many times and when you actually start researching the results you find that 12 volt switches are actually what is being returned. I think Alibaba requires dealing with Vendors in China and I can't...

Can anybody tell me how I can use 12V illuminated switches on my 24V deuce? Using a resistor, etc? Or can you point me to a vendor who sells 24V illuminated toggle switches? I want to use them to turn on exterior LED floodlights, etc. Thanks!
