Hello, I'm working on a bike project. It's not an ebike, but I found an ebike throttle on Amazon that looks like it will work well for what I'm doing.
This throttle has a keyed ignition switch. On a normal ebike I'm guessing that this would just be a signal wire to a motor controller since the wiring to it is a pretty thin gauge. But I was wondering if anyone knows about how much current this ignition switch can handle. I took the throttle apart, and the switch has no markings on it that tell me what it's rated to, or even a part number that I could look up to try to find the amperage rating. For what I'm doing I need to run a small fuel pump and an electronic telemetry device. I'm just wondering if I could get away with running that directly through this ignition switch or not. Thanks.
