You running power through that switch? Wire it up for neg switching works much better and no way for it to short out.

+1, got to be a wiring problem. The switch (even at $4) is getting too hot.

No wiring problem, the switch is still working but the led burnt out the second time I turned it on, I connect another switch of the same type and it works just fine. I just hate when all I can find for parts locally in this whole is cheap crap like those switches.

Any source for a good one?

You got a Marina or RV store around you? If so go see what they have, but be ready to pay hard.

No and no, but I just found some 30 amps switches at a truck repair shop. I will make another face plate to mount them on the box I made and post some pics later.
