In-Line switch for a 1K?

I got a few Colortran 1K fresnels a few months back. One of them has a three-pronged twist lock type of plug and the other just a has cut cable sticking out of it (with 3 wires). I was going to throw some Edison plugs on them, but since they have no switches (I assume they were on a grid), I was going to put a switch on the cable. Is that something I can pick up at Home Depot or Lowe's?

Suggestions?
 
Thanks, Good to know. I know I can order them from an Arri supplier, but I'm a bit impatient at the moment.
 
IF you are in a rush, odds are any rental place in your town has the switches on hand for repairs. Talk to them, I am sure they would help you out with it.

Getting anything in a normal hardware store for that kind of power in unlikely.
 
True, but I want something that looks good on the cable. I could frankenstein a junction box and switch, but I want it to look clean.
