Centro Electronic Magnetic Switch

The Centro Electronic Magnetic Switch is a compact, high-current solution for reliable power control in RC models and other electronics. Using contactless magnetic switching, it removes mechanical wear points and improves long-term reliability.

With a 3.5V–13V input range, it suits most battery setups. It delivers a constant 15A output at 25°C, with

burst capability up to 45A (0.1 sec) > for handling peak loads.

Designed for efficiency, it features an ultra-low dropout voltage of 60mV at 20A and standby current below 10µA, helping maximise battery life.

Supplied fitted with 1x male and 1x female receiver plug and 150mm wire lengths, the compact 25 x 10mm module fits neatly inside a receiver box—ideal for keeping everything sealed, dry, and protected from dirt or water on the track.

Why Use a Magnetic Switch?

Magnetic switching makes life easier. No more unplugging batteries, removing hatches, or trying to reseal covers in cold or wet conditions. Install it once and simply switch your model on or off externally using the supplied magnet.
Many users choose this style of switch for sealed setups like boats and rally cars, where keeping water out is critical. It also allows you to prep your model in advance, with virtually no battery drain while waiting to run.
