Switch Question
 
Ok, I'm planning on makeing a baybus, and I want to know... What Amperage switch should I shoot for? I found these nifty on-off-on switches at radio shack. They're 6 amp, and rather small, which is why I like them so much. But would that be enough for say, a 120mm Panaflo L? I'm not sure how much current they suck.

I need mini switches for where I plan on putting it... but I don't want them to fry on me either.

Most fans are .1A - .6A, unless you are looking at delta's

go to http://www.mpja.com first. Very, Very cheap parts. You may even find some fans you want. They have 80mm Panaflo L1a's for under $3.

At 6 Amps those switches could power up to 72Watts (6A x 12V) of fan. I don't think you'll be needing to go above that ;']
