On your wires that are your + and - wires can you connect a led on those 2 wires so you can make sure that it is getting power when the switch is turned on in either direction? 3:40
All dpdt switches need a neutral or resting position so any dpdt is going to be a 3 way. A 2 way switch is a spdt switch with 3 connections (power,to load,ground)
I have a On-Off-On DPDT Switch. Is there a way I can solder wires to all six terminals so I can use it in a 3 way wiring scheme? For example, I have a negative wire on terminal 1 (NC), positive wire on terminal 2 (COM), negative wire on terminal 3 (NO), positive wire on terminal 4 (NC), negative wire on terminal 5 (COM), and positive wire on terminal 6 (NO). Or do I have to crossover the wires? This is very confusing. And I wanted to see videos of switches actually wired up so I know what I'm looking at.
@@Darkwingdad VapOven "Battery Powered Induction Heater (Deluxe) Wiring Diagram". This is what I'm building, but it's similar to the diagram. There is a 12v DC input jack, an On-Off-On DPDT slide switch, a 3s 18650 battery pack with BMS, a MOSFET module (which is what handles power to all components), a tactile switch and momentary push button, a battery/voltage indicator, and the IH module. I'm trying to figure out which wires are supposed to connect from the battery pack to the DC input jack and I need to know which wires from DC input pack and the battery pack are supposed to go to the slide switch and which wires go to the MOSFET. Essentially what I'm asking is, I need to know how to hook up the DC input jack and battery pack wires and hook them up to the slide switch and to the MOSFET module. Also, somebody said, “Put a 6 amp fuse on the DC power brick -in. The BMS is a fuse as well but you can back it with an 8 amp fuse in the same way, -in before the switch.” How would I wire the 6 amp fuse?
220v ..... Hmmmm ..is that 220vAC .AC as in alternating current ? If so that motor will only run in one direction because it has no polarity. With no polarity switching wires won't get it to run in the opposite direction.
I need help wiring 2 servos to a battery pack that holds 3 double a batteries. The battery holder has 2 metal prongs (+ and ground or -). The servos each have a ground wire and a power or red wire. I need to connect it all to a rocker switch with 2 metal prongs by soldering, and I am not sure how.
Hi! Your video is awesome and I’m a huge fan of your work! I wanted to ask how you would connect two motors to the DPDT switch? Are they both connected to the same two prongs in the middle? How does one go up and one go down that way?
Basically the middle prong get a positive and negative (com) and than you essentially you cross the positive diagonal from the top left to the bottom right & the negative goes from top right to bottom left (an x pattern) in the video it shows you how. I can post a pic of you need reference.
I am wiring a wireless stoplight. I have two power supplies going to power the main relay for the light. 1 12v 7ah sealed rechargeable battery. Other is transformer power 12v 2.5a would a DPDT Switch work for switching between which power goes to the relay board to power the system. Only one supply should be active at once. Thanks
@@Darkwingdad can u make video brother, i really want to learn this to make incubator to earn livelihood for my family. I shall be greatful if u make video please
Hey Jim, just standard 20gauge is fine. Now if you are using a bigger battery pack like the other one in the video and you are using it to do multiple components I’d use a bit thicker wire coming off the pack say 14 or 16 and than use 20 gauge to “branch” off to the other components. That way the current has little resistance coming from the pack.

This has helped me so much! Thank you 😊
No problem I’ll have a more in-depth crash course in a few weeks
@@Darkwingdad sounds great! I just done it and it works perfectly :) now all I’ve got to do is solder it!

hi, so how do i wire a 3 pin 2 way dpdt switch that connects from motor to switch then battery ?

Essentially the on/off reverts the polarity in opposite directions when direction is changed. What are you trying to wire up?

Hi. Im making a can crusher but the linear actuator im using is 220v. Will this switch wiring method work?
No this switch will only work with 12vdc you’ll need a 220 compatible switch

You still need a dpdt switch
@@Darkwingdad I’m using 360 degree servos for a simple bot so it was spst
I’m just confused about where the wires go
My teacher said I have to bundle up and solder to red power wires from the servo and put it on the switch I think
Wait where's the third wire from the servo ? (Servo motors usually have 3 wires, 2 for power and 1 for PWM.)
When the servo is hardwired it’s just pos & negative. Throwing positive moves it one way & when negatively energized it reverses that motion.
Please can u do one with a different switch like the 3 prong rocket switches thank you
You need a dpdt switch because the servos and actuators require alternating current to work. What were you trying to wire up?
@@Darkwingdad okie dokie that's fine over ordered some now and was hot wireing a mettel micro servo with a 9v battery

That’s for an arduino board. You’ll have to go to the motor and hardwire it to work

Awesome Video! What gauge wires do you use to extend the AAA battery packs?
