Alright, I searched it up on Ebay, found two models: the 2600 and the 2800. Which one should i use? And some say 12 VDC... my understanding from the apex manual is that the switch should not be powered seperately.... so should i not pick the ones that are 12VDC??

Mine are the 2800 ones. I don't recall why I chose them over the 2600. But they work and they do not require an external power source.

Sweet! That one looks much nicer than the Neptune one, too.
