[Jeff Barnes]

Hi Don, 
  
   Are you talking about at the panel or in engine compartment ?
 
Regards,

Most people use a micro-switch for the throttle position to trigger the gear-up warning system.

Because of the way my fuel line and manifold pressure line is routed, it's going to be real difficult to mount a micro-switch to detect throttle position. 

I was talking to my A&P and he mentioned that some aircraft use a pressure switch that reads the manifold pressure that can trigger the gear warning. 

Does anyone know of such a pressure switch?

Thanks,
Don
