Waterproof electrical connectors and switches?

[ahx66]

Where can you buy waterproof connectors and switches? (other than batteryspace.com (selection seems limmited)) Thank you kindly!

I just built up a DIY rear light and was looking for the exact same parts. I found them at Digikey. I used a mini toggle switch with a silicone waterproof boot that screws on over the toggle. For the connector I found a Hirose one that is small and good quality. Here are some links:

3 pin panel mount jack
3 pin cable mount plug
waterproof cap

Here's the datasheet for this series of connectors.

Silicone switch boot
Mini toggle switch

The switch boot product page has links to many switches that it's compatible with.

You should also be able to find waterproof connectors for landscape lighting, though rather big. The proper size heatshrink can help. And, do a search for "sand sealed switch" I use these on my rail. Probably bigger than you want, but there is some options
