I need about 6 switches but cant afford genuine carling. I only need good toggle switches that are labeled

Personally, I would test what you buy out of the vehicle before fitting. I bought this kit and ran a 10 amp load through the 12v port to see how hot it got.
The USB stuff I tested to 2.5 amps with an external load also. They checked out OK for me but I would always test before install.

Use the proper Carlings, MUD have the best prices i believe.
China cig lighters are fine to use but ive had one out if 4 melt.
Blue sea do excellent twin 5v USB socket.
Big issue with the china ones is they dont always wire them up the same! Makes them a nightmare. Also arnt not rated to the 20 amps they say!
