I'm looking for some thermal switch/relays to control my motor and controller fans, I recall seeing one similar to the one pictured here a while ago, for $8ish, I think from digikey (think I got the link from someone here), but can't seem to find it now. Anyone know where these can be had? Needs to handle 6A at 12V and trip at 110-130 deg F.

I have found some button ones that would be suitable, but I really prefer this form factor.

For relays at this power level, why don't u just use the standard automotive cubes? In fact, if you look at your fuse panel, you likely have some left over ones from the ICE...like fuel pump for example....
OR... if it's 12 volts, just use a snap switch...

Looks like I may have to use a temp snap switch.

Know a good site with 130 F triggers? digikey has other temps for ~$8, but the 130 F is $26

The CS-7 by Cantherm will handle 12V/15A:

Looks like 122 F for $8 is closest. Available at Digikey.
