You can find some things here
http://http://www.kayakfishingsuppli...rts/Categories http://http://www.google.com/#q=wate...69&safe=active I searched google for waterproof switches. Maybe these two links will help you. |
in a sense, basic electrical isnt far from plumbing. aside from complex cicuitry, one can view voltage as pressure in a pipe, current would be like the flow rate and the pipe size the is sort of like resistance. way better than i could ever explain here. http://science.howstuffworks.com/env...uestion501.htm

Lowe's has waterproof switches for $8 and change that I mounted on my yak and my mom's and they work just fine. I bought my lights from West Marine and I bought insulated connections, marine heat shrink and wire from an electrical supply store- better prices than WM

:reeling:just remember, the more you add the more that can go wrong, maintenance, etc. Best to go KISS (keep it simple stupid) when you are starting out. good luck.

Mo Wires..... Mo problems...... I had some lights mounted for those early spring 2am mornings, but even with the best attemps the corrosion still won...never a problem at the battery box, just to the lights themselves,
Headlight works more better and after 2 seasons back to basics..and no mo problems...:cool: |
Get a few contura rocker switches (waterproof) and wire those up with inline fuses rated for the proper draw. Use heat shrink connectors and use cord managers to organize the wires and keep them out of the way.
