My cub is 12 volt what kind of headlight switch do I need to use? I currently don't have any. I know the cubs were originally 6 volt will the switch burn out, probably so right.
thanks
Kevin

Kevin,
Assuming you use the same wattage bulbs as the 6 volt were, the current through the switch will only be half as much. It would be the current, not the voltage that would cause heating of the contacts. The original switch would be ideal.
