OT Sort Of: Toggle Switch
alright fellas i need one of you electrical geniuses to come through for me....im looking for a toggle switch like the ones you see in nascar to start the car....the kind that are spring loaded and you have to hold them and when released it reverts back to the original position.....since adding my air dog i have noticed on my battery gauge the voltage drops to around 10.5 or so instead of the usual 12 when cold starting....if i sit there and wait for the glow plugs to cycle off the voltage bumps up and the truck starts normally (speed wise) if i dont wait for the gp's to turn off the truck will start but is slow cranking until it speeds up.....i want to add the spring loaded toggle so i can hold the toggle up and cut the power to the airdog while i start the truck and then release the toggle and the airdog powers back up....i know i can just use a static toggle but i figured if i use the spring loaded one it wont get bumped off just when i dont need it to.......

i thought about this but will the contacts be on the inside of the toggle switch to work it this way?

And after a little digging I have found some Center on 3 positions from Honeywell. Nothing high amps yet though.
Here is one on Allied's site Honeywell - 32NT91-70 - Sensors, Switches & Relays - Switches - Allied Electronics
