Default Small surface mount switches, maybe architrave switches?

That's 5A DC too. 240V AC switches are generally unreliable for this.

Try CPC for toggles - they have some with decent DC ratings that are
quite cheap.


Yes, I know, that's what I said to start with, but how do I surface
mount them, that's the difficult bit.
