What switches from radio shack are best for box mod building?

[Dread]

I am building a dual battery unregulated box mod and was wondering what switch from radio shack would be the best for this project if anyone has any experience with them I would be appreciative of feed back on this.

I really wouldn't recommend radio shack for switches.. don't get me wrong they have a decent selection of other components, but I would not trust the switches. Especially not in unregulated mod. I would recommend buying from digikey or another online component seller..


But all this is going of the switches the local radio Shacks have in my area, I don't know if yours is different.

Just about any switch will work if a MOSFET is used. Then the switch is just sending a signal and the fet is handling the current.

Thank you boom stick I was planing on putting a mosfet in for safety it is rather cheap to do so and why skip and skimp I was just unsure and didn't want to waste money burning out switch after switch til I got it right

If you are looking at anti vandal switches check an auto parts store. They all usually have them, I think Orielys (how ever u spell it has the best selection.
