QUOTE(GoldenHawk @ Jun 9 2006, 09:59 AM) 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? Oh. I was talking about the illuminated ones. The last time I checked RM70 a piece, not including shipping. 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   |

QUOTE(Eokboy @ Jun 13 2006, 03:06 AM) One problem is they're probably all momentary-on, turns back off once you lift your finger. yeah. exactly what i meant earlier. i wanted latching ones (push on, push off). |

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Jun 13 2006, 01:41 PM) Dood...if you're doing a bulk or something...let me know ya...I want one too. PM me. Cheers That is if i'm doing it lah heheh. Now we need a right source first.QUOTE(bahgger @ Jun 13 2006, 11:14 PM) I don't see why you all dislike the fact that it's a momentary switch, as it works perfectly fine just like any other switch, and I've tested it on both a DFI Lanparty NF3 and Asus A8N-SLi motherboard. Simple reason: Because I dont intend to use it as a power or reset switch. Otherwise the other option is to make a relay circuit to control the On/off sequence fed by the momentary switch.This post has been edited by MetalZone: Jun 14 2006, 04:48 PM |

QUOTE(lolhalol @ Jun 23 2006, 11:41 AM) the switches still need to hav power.. i think u can wire the switch's light into the mobos power led conection...that should work right?? Yeah u can power it this way.QUOTE(GoldenHawk @ Jun 23 2006, 08:30 AM) 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? Yes there's another two pins for powering the illumination LED. Total of 4 pins.And I think the accessory below makes a good addition to having these switches. --> Switch Mounting Plate The LED stays on all the time provided it is powered. You better limit the power u're supplying to it via a resistor, 5v's from our rails may be a bit too much. Typical LED's require 3v. You won't wanna burn out that expensive switch. I hope the LED's replaceable? I think i'm definately out on the illuminated ones. I'm gonna need 4 switches for my light bus, and even if we can get RM50 a piece, its gonna cost me a massive RM200. yikes. This post has been edited by MetalZone: Jun 23 2006, 10:37 PM |
