Or you can plan for a talon or jag to burn up and have an easy way to remove and change the components. Quick disconnects are a very easy way to keep switches simple and easy and having all of the wires ziptied to something other than the talon or jag itself will keep the wire from going everywhere when the talon or jag is pulled out.
