16mm versus 12mm AV Switches

[craig139]

Hi. Silly question, but is the 12/16 mm spec diameter or length?

[Lobezno]

Hi! Diameter, 100%

other than how big around they are they are exactly the same. most people use the 12 millimeter as an aux switch. but it is really all about personal preference I personally use the 12 millimeter as my main switch because it is smaller and I didn't have long part to put it in.

I thought that might be the case. A pity there are no 12mm boxes available. Thanks for your help!

Well you could always order the switch hole service on the blank style boxes:

I would recommend watching the YouTube channel for TCSS as there is a special clip on switches. Some interesting tips in it as well. Sorry at work so can't post the actual link.

Edit: Might be under his own channel Rob Petkau.
