[Rhodes22-list] Covert Badlands 2500 Winch from remote to rocker switch?

[Mike Riter]

No worries Bob.
I was just looking at my drawing and realized you don’t need a 30 amp rated
switch since the switch is only powering the relay coils. I would recommend
the best water tight, marine grade switch you can get that’s rated for a
few amps higher than either of the relays.
