I am getting ready to order some switches for my Auber PID project and have a question.

I am looking at this style Switch

This is a LED illuminated 24 volt switch. Can I use this to switch the 12 control circuit that connects the PID with the low voltage side of the SSR? Being rated for 24 volts I am wondering if 12 volts will still light up the LED.

Also, where is the best place to get this stuff these days? I really miss the "Old" Radio shack when I do projects like this.

Thanks
Scott
