You are right. None of the Carling Technologies site toggle switches
have the S700 designation.
My switch was purchased from B&C Specialty Products and was not
listed as a Carling product. See: http://www.bandcspecialty.com/
However, The AeroElectric Connection in several places has refered to
the S700 series switch (a 7+ amp, 125 to 250 VAC, toggle switch) as a
Carling product. Several of the individuals that have had strobe
system switch problems also referred to Carling toggle switches. I
think Carling was stamped on the side of my shorted out switch, but I
can't confirm that as the switch is no longer available.
For a description of a similar switch failure, See: http://
www.aeroelectric.com/articles/Anatomy_of_a_Switch_Failure/
Anatomy_of_a_Switch_Failure.html
Bob Nuckolls has recommended a more robust toggle switch for my
system, the Honeywell 11TS95.

This is really odd! The switch is designed to short ......

I googles 'carling 700 switch' and got:
Rotary /switch Carling/ Technologies. /700/-Series: four position single
pole rotary /switch/; 1 to 4 amp, 125 to 250VAC; self-cleaning wiping
contacts; *...
*Which confuses me more since this isn't really a rotary switch
application ..... what am I missing??? And it's only rated at 4 amp.
AC though. I never knew exactly why, but AC rated switches aren't
supposed to work as good in a DC environment.

If we're really talking about the same switch, I agree.
