What Lighted 3 Way Switch?

[reelamin]

What lighted three way switch are all of you using? I love the OTTRATW, but they don't have a three way. I want to be able to turn on my auxillary lights constant on or through a relay to only be on at certain times. I want a switch that has a lit portion so I can find it at night, and then a larger lit area when the switch is in either of the "on" positions.

As far as the constant on/switched on function that can be achieved with a SPDT or DPDT switch. (on/off/on) Regarding the lighting functions you desire I would contact a rep at otrattw and see if they have what you desire in that area. It would appear that a DPDT could control the function required on one side of the switch and the desired lighting functions could be controlled by the other pole set.

Thanks for info. I have sent two emails already. I don't see any switches advertised by them that have the needed indicators. I'll call tomorrow. Could you explain what your abbreviations stand for?

SPDT is Single Pole/ Double Throw.
DPDT is Double Pole Double Throw

DPDT just has 2 sets of switching terminals on the same switch that are isolated from each other. You could control your solenoid for your auxiliary lights with one set of contacts and wire the other set to sequence the indicator lamps on the switch as you wish. To get the combo you want, you may have to order the switch and cover button separately.
