DIY livewells: toggle switches
 
Which ones did you DIYers use for your tank? The cheap ones I got off ebay rusted on me. Thanks

We are selling the BEP brand pretty pricey at $27.99 but anything with a "marine" applications is spendy.

I wish hobie would own up to all their failed switches with the version 1 bait tank. We should have an option to send the pull switch in and exchange with the new v2 bait tank switch.

True. Thanks Andy. I'll take a look into it.

I bought these and they are holding up pretty well without rust - a pack of 4 for $8

West Marine sells some Cole Hersee switches I've used with good results.

The last one that I installed has been working for at least a few years now, I don't recall if I bought it at OEX or at west marine but it was a marine grade switch. I know its easy to go cheap but sometimes going cheap will end up costing you more.
