C5 PRO Safety Switch
Get rid of that loose, cheap, home built safety switch. Why?
Vibration during pulls can cycle the power on/off many times per second which can cause electronic failures and coil misfire. An unreliable switch is dangerous!
Our new C5 PRO Safety Switch includes:
-Automotive grade sealed ball switch rated at 5 amp max.
-Solid billet Aluminum construction
-Aluminum clamp allows mounting in any position
-Spring ball pin with split ring
-Comes with 6 feet of wiring and connector
Switch has a 36 month warranty. Picture may differ slightly from actual product.

- C5 users please order first option which completes the circuit when pin is in place and cuts power to the ignition when the pin is pulled (called a Normally Open switch).
- If you wish to use this to ground the circuit when the pin is pulled out, such as when grounding a coil, then order the second option (called a Normally Closed switch).
We are a proud sponsor of Pulling for the Cure!
