Don't know the specs of those switches but for example:

240v / 1A = 3.7V / 65A

It's the watts that matter... You only need to convert accordingly the specs from one voltage to the other. Now if the spec listed for the switch are something like 120V / 0.5A then at 3.7 you only would have 16A which might be marginal.

I present to you (and everyone else) a bit of proof regarding how to properly rerate switches as per an OEM. This is from their PDF on the subject. I see this wattage thing all the time, so I can see how it keeps spreading... so long as we learn, all should be well :)



Note that dropping the voltage by 10 fold has no effect on the amp limit and in no case does the amp limit increase.
