Cool, that should cover the switches. What do you think about the gas valve?
 
Im also trying to decide which valve to use. Its a bit bewildering with the huge range available.
I see that the valve you mention has an max input rating of 1/2 PSI. This sounds low even for a low pressure burner. Hopefully someone else can advise.

So ware do i find cool illuminated switches for my 110v march pumps ?

This is the gas switch I was looking at . Is it the one I want or does someone else have another suggestion ? Also is that the best price.:D

I use Honeywell and White Rodgers furnace valves with the same input pressure specs and they work very well with my jet and ring burners.
Bru Honeywell intermittent pilot furnace gas valve in action;)

I went ahead and got the gas valves from ebay for $35.80 each:D

I am still waffling over the switches . I know the ones I want for the pumps will be rated for 110 but do I need 24v switches to turn on and off my controllers ?:confused:

I didn't see mention of what controllers you plan to use, but switches for them should be a pretty short put. The 110v rated switches will work just as well on the 24 volt circuits.
 
The first one is just a timer .

This is the stand without the control panel.

I wasn't sure that the illuminated 110 switches would work with 24v.

They will work just fine - Assuming you are using the modular switches.

You have to buy the switch frame/knob, and then add NO or NC contact blocks, as well as the light module. Just buy 24v lamp modules for those switches, and you'll be good to go.
 
So I got 1 of the 2 gas valves I paid for today (ebay) Hopefully he still has the other one and just forgot I got 2 !:drunk:
