Aux Switch Uses - Ideas??

[mostly harmless]

So there are six included/available factory installed auxiliary switches (depending on the model you are getting) for the new Broncos. I for one will probably not be mounting six switches worth of aftermarket lighting to my Bronco. So I am looking for other ideas for how to put these switches to use.

I have heard a few ideas already, such as running a mini fridge or winches. What are some other good uses for these switches?

Or what about less practical, but nonetheless amusing uses for them? I was thinking about labeling one of the buttons “DO NOT TOUCH!” and also rigging it to spray water in the passenger’s face if they flip it.

So let’s hear everybody’s ideas!!

You could put a winch on one if you add a power interrupt. Wouldn't put a fridge on one of these.

Air compressor is a popular choice.

I'll will probably never hook anything to them, but just sit there all day flipping them off and on.

I read it somewhere that each Aux switch has a certain fuse rating. I'll try and find it. But if I do get the BD with the Aux switches, I'll have something like the below:
1. Front bumper lights.
2. Rear rack or bumper lights.
3. Side lights.
4. Compressor.
5. Thinking of putting a wireless charging pad somewhere in the centre console. So maybe that.

Do they stay powered when the ignition is off, I could see wanting both scenarios?

Can you rig one so the vehicle can’t be started? Thinking mad max fury road lol

On Jeeps you can do either through the menu. Plus they can be momentary or latching. Hopefully it's the same.

I'll run one as a kill switch to the 12v auxiliary in the 7pin trailer wiring.

Maybe a single spot light somewhere.

Not likely much else.

Wire up one to light up your brake lights, just to mess with the guys who tail too close... believe race cars used to do that back in the day.
