Using The Wrong Switch

[avengers63]

I can't find the right switches, and I'm not going to pay $5-$8 per for simple slider switches. I'm going to wire up a pair of pups with individual on/off sliders, but all I can find are the double-pole variety.

Just so we're on the same page, the piles are like so:

I I

I I

I I

instead of:

I

I

I

Can I use them exactly as the single pole variety if I bridge the sets like so:

I-I

I-I

I-I

As I understand things, wouldn't this effectively turn them into single pole switches?

YES

Although, you don't need to bridge them, just use one side of three

Even better. Thanks buddy!
