Nitrous racers - What WOT switch are you using?

What are you guys using? I am wanting to use a quality switch that is durable, reliable, and readily available. I had two good switches in the past, but let them go with the motors when I sold them. I never knew where they came from or who made them, but they appeared to be heavy duty industrial switches of some sort. Nothing like the WOT switches typically sold with nitrous kits. They were activated by throttle linkage. Thinking about possibly putting it at the pedal this time. Thanks for any advice/info!

I only use a momentary on button on left side of steering wheel, but looking at your car...guess that is NOT what you want!

McMaster Carr has ones similar to what I. I actually have a Mitsubishi one that came off of some control systems on a large diesel engine. It looks similar to the ones that are in the link, these are quality. They are rated at AC power, but the side of them will say 250V DC and such on them.

This is similar to the one I use.

If you run pneumatic nitrous solenoids, they make switches for that as well.
