needs a relay best in my review

Ordered 1 for hydroponic watering. Switch controls a 12vdc pump that draws 300ma. The first switch failed to reliably cycle on/off and was promptly replaced. While contacts are rated at 500ma and pump draws 300ma I believe pump startup current spike exceeds 500ma rating causing contacts to stick. Ended up using $5, 12vdc EMR (general purpose automotive relay) from auto store with this switch. Relay/switch combo has been working like a charm for 3 weeks. Was impressed with solid stainless construction and claim of up to 2 million cycles.

Pros

Made of high-quality stainless steel, this water level sensor switch guarantees reliable and accurate liquid detection for fish tanks, cisterns, aquariums, pools, and ponds

Cons

The stainless steel construction may make the sensor susceptible to damage from rust or corrosion over time
