Yes, I read the specs, as I said, I linked the same data sheet nearly a hundred posts back in this thread. In fact, I was a reliability engineer for years early in my career testing none other than electrical switches for AT&T Bell Labs so specs and MTBF data from the DoD matter to me. Of course, as with anything, you need to decide if you will operate within the parameters of the spec. If you are one that is constantly flipping (rotating in this case) the switch back and forth, then that switch is not for you. Me personally, I test everything on the bench and only hook up the switch as I'm buttoning up the av-bay and am off to the RSO table and pad. I build many high power designs and only fly any one rocket 5 to 10 times top in its lifetime. As I said in post #524, I would never hit 300 cycles in the next 3 decades with any one rocket, heck, the way I like to build, it may be 3 of my lifetimes.I posted the pdf, I can lead you to specs, I can't guarantee that you read them
no load means no load LOL, if you test the switch several times you have decreased the life of it
