Re: need a BEAST of a toggle switch for compressors

Ok I figured it out. It need to be a continuous duty solenoid. The starter solenoids can handle a burst of like 400amps but only about 40 continuous. Got one from the local parts store that handles 85amps continuous. Lets see if it hold up. Thanks for y'alls help.
