it is all depends on what you are getting, and what you are using it for..
relay draws less amp(around 250 miliamp) to get energized to trigger what is hooked up to..it is giving you upto 30~40 amp of output(for regular relay, spdt)..
if the button is not rated for 30~40 amp, then i recommend you to add relay..

Totally agree on this....although I was assuming, maybe wrongly, that if the unit he buys is a START button, it would come with instructions telling him he needed a relay if that was the case. However, always better to check.....wouldn't want a melt down the first time you use it :o

either hes advertising for them lol or maybe because you have to get a relay it may cost more. i checked out the S2000 buttons they're like 35 now. i feel pretty good getting mine for 15 bucks, no relay needed and it has a green led ring around it. money well spent as far as im concerned.
