Hmmm, you have given me some food for thought.I'm not going to say you're wrong. I've never used it in a switch application. I use it all the time with connections that might/will get wet to prevent water entry.
I did a self install for three LED lights on my Tenere to increase my primarily daytime conspicuity.
However; on two occasions, one, I rode in moderate rain and the relay I used in conjunction with a dedicated plug coupled into the bike's aux plug stuck in the on position and I was unable to turn off my aux lights. Only option I had was to cut the wires just shy of each light.
Later on in the car wash, that I do myself by hand, I noticed the aux LED lights were on, although faintly burnt enough to drain the battery
I was close to home (fortunately) and recognized it was another relay failure. Sure enough, when I unplugged the relay the lights went off. I have since put a relay of a different brand and all is working well, at least until the next rainy day or carwash/bikewash.
So perhaps some dielectric grease on all of my SHUMBA electrical connections.
