Hi Dwayne; the Seaflo Battery Disconnect Switch # SE29VR does have a higher rating than the ones you got off Amazon. Those look like knockoffs of the BEP Marine switch so quality is probably lacking as well. However, you need to determine what your power draw is to be sure. If you will be exceeding the 300A continuous and 500A intermittent rating you will still end up melting the switch.
