youngs feather burner power switch question

[rluttrell]

I was watching Rob's video on taping and feather burning. He put a on/off switch in the power cord. I went to Radio Shack and home depot and cant find one. I am not sure if I am calling it the right name our not. but simple put I want to put an off/on switch in the cord of my feather burner. Can you guys send me in the right direction....

Got any lamp shops close by? Any rocker type on and off switch will work.

Any simple switch will work,even the one or your home lights. Toggle switch from an auto parts or farm equipment/small engine store. Could just look around thrift store for an old lamp with switch in the cord. Then of course there's specialty electrical supply houses.

Just make sure the switch is rated for the volts and amperage.  Most switches will be.  AC is much easier to switch than DC.

I don't use my burner that often, but find simply plugging it in and pulling the plug seems to work fine.  Good luck on your search.

I have 2 one with a rocker switch and one with out I just plug it into a surge protecter and use it's switch  as the on & off

Do you have a Belkin surge protector? Plug it in, and the burner and be turned off with the switch on the surge protector. Surge protector comes with a heavy cord and a fuse.
