The switch that is supplied with the NOS bottle opener is a momentary double-pole/double throw. But you don't need a double-pole, only a single pole. It has to be a 12V/25-amp switch because it wires directly to the opener solenoid, and not to a relay.

If you post or e-mail a fax #, I will fax you the NOS instruction sheet.

I meant for you to post your fax number here, or e-mail me your fax number.

You definitely need more than 18-ga wire. It might not actually draw 25-amps, but you need a switch rated that high, not the typical 6-amp or 10-amp rated switch.
