Does anybody know if all the DG Holeshot Module's now come with an on/off switch or is it an option, or an add on?

It's still an option for you to buy and add. The instructions for adding a switch are very simple, and the switch is probably under $3 at radio shack.

 

IMO, you do not need a switch. The power is not THAT severe.

 

I have a switch on my P650 for the DG holeshot. It is an option and you have to go find the correct switch yourself. My local radio shacks didn't carry the right kind, so I drove all over Houston to find it at a specialty electical supply store. I seem to recall its a SPDT switch and its the "on/on" type of switch (b/c you need to send either the stock speed sensor signal OR send the DG holeshot signal). An "on/off" switch is NOT what you need and that's the only kind of SPDT switch they had at my local radio shack. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

The right switch only cost me about $2.50, so I bought 3 of them in case they get corroded in time and need replacement. I couldn't find a waterproof switch that would work as that would be the perfect set up.

For most riding situations, I totally agree with Rutwad's statement above that its not necessary to install a switch. Basically, I use the switch whenever my kids or wife drive my quad (especially on pavement). I also use it when I do steep, rockclimbing. I tend to go up these rocky hills very slowly and sometimes I hit WOT to get past/over a tough obstacle...that's exactly the time when I don't want a DG holeshot to come on! Other than these 2 situations, the switch is always in the "on" position and thus, is not needed. The neat thing about this switch is that you can turn it on or off while the engine is running, so its very convenient. I even mounted mine on the handlebar plastic next to the speedo display and it looks like OEM.

The rumor is that the next version of the DG Holeshot will have a sealed switch on the device.

 

Thanks for all the good info!!
