There are those times in our lives when we want a circuit closed. There are some times when we want a circuit to be open. If you are indecisive and can't commit to a circuit being open or closed, there are these things called "switches" for people like you. This one looks good, has a solid snapover and sticks in position well. Nothing floppy and uncommitted like your desire to have something on or off all the time. Works well for 12 volts or 120 volts. Not so well for 10,000 volts, though. Ouch.
