Hello everyone...

Modders out there, ever wondered where to get those Bulgin switches? Please refer to the link for a GOOD idea what I'm talking about

-> Illuminated Bulgin Switch

Well, I've just joined the bandwagon of wonderers. Does ANYONE know where in Malaysia can we get these switches?

Does anyone want to BULK these? I'm sure there would be quite a few modders who wants them

OFFTOPIC:

Look at these guys --> MNPC Tech

Sweet!!!

That is if you buy a single Piece & get it shipped it over here from the U.S./U.K./Canada/etc. Anyone actually thought of bulking these items?

I'm quite sure if we could bulk it, it'll cost less than RM20 each (not the illuminated ones of course ). Check these out for the prices:

-> MNPC Tech
-> BULGIN Pushbutton Switch

The illuminated ones....

Anyway, you think anyone from U.S./U.K./Canada/etc. could source some out for us? Could make a few bucks in the process

'Gap! You think you can get some?
The LED holders are rare too... maybe you could source some if those too.
Possible?

Dude, I'm sure there's gonna be a TONNE of people wanting these switches...
Even the military style toggle switches (missile switch) took SWEET

Anyone willing to conduct an overseas bulk?

Would anyone here be interested in these?
Switch Covers

Since it's available in Taiwan, you think anyone from there could do an international bulk?

Anyone from Taiwan here???

Actually, the non-illuminated versions are just as nice
Anyone interested to bulk?

Dude, no illuminated ones unfortunately

How about this?
-> ER - SWITCH, 22MM, LOW BUTTON PROFILE, FRONT PANEL/SINGLE HOLE

Or this?
-> ER - Switch, Vandel Resistant, 22mm, Low Profile, SP, Push to make, 1A 250V

Err.. not much of a website they have there... huh?
Anyway, if possible, maybe you can inquire for a quotation for orders in 10, 50 & 100 pieces. This way, we might be able to have a rough idea of what prices we are looking at per/quantity

Dude, maybe he doesn't intend to use them as PC power switches? If you're going to control a CCFL or some other electronics that require a latching power switch, then he's on the right track I supposed.

Dude, any updates?
Found any reliable sources?

Anyone else interested in bulking?

Actually, I've gone around emailing a few companies as well... no reply so far
Hope you have better luck

Dude, can't you just ask for the price in order sizes of 10, 50 & 100 units?
I'm sure it's possible. At least then, we'll have a rough idea of what prices to expect.
I'm not sure many us would want to say "YES" now & later having to pay an exhobirant price for the switches, right?

Hope you could just find out 1st. Then the orders should start coming in smoothly

So Mr. lolhalol, any updates for us?

OK, back to SwithcMods, anyone actually thought about actually wiring these switches? As for as I know, the LED's within the illuminated versions of these swithces are standard 5v runners. I think it involves powering 2 extra feet at the base of the switches. Correct me if I'm wrong, OK?

And I think the accessory below makes a good addition to having these switches.
--> Switch Mounting Plate

What say you guys? Go original or retail (as above)?

Installing the power switch souldn't be much of a problem. Just remove the wires from the current switch & fit or solder them to the new switch's leads. There are no polarity concerns with these switches.

As for clearence, it depends on what type of casing/switches you're using now. Under most circumstances, there would be some amount of modifications needed in order to accomodate these switches. Worst case scenario, you'll have to utilize one of your 3.5"/5.25" bays to hold the switch(es)

Here's another switch-type which you guys might find interesting:
--> Fighter Switch

There seems to be someone to contact on the page. Anyone in Taiwan now?

Anyway, anyone got any suggestions on where these type of switches would look nice on the case? OR has anyone done mods with these switches before? Come on guys!

Check & see if there are any mod stores there. Then let us know-lah
We'll make orders via yourself Can?

...and may I knw why?

BTW Mr. Sniper, how much do the switches cost roughly?

Wha....!!
*...drops on floor...*

Thread seems kind of dead ...
