Toggle switch... o.O

like the one's you operate manually, with your finger?

If this is what you're thinking, I know someone who is going to need an engine rebuild in the near future!

Your idea is a bad idea. Wire your e-fan properly.

If you need a diagram like this to figure out this wiring, you really shouldn't be wiring it yourself. Just make sure to use a toggle with contacts rated to match your fan current.




This really is a bad idea, tho.

Nice freehand MS paint diagram. It looks like a toddler started messing with his mommy's ipad
