    Exclamation illuminated DPDT latching push button switches...

    Well i have been having a REALLY hard time trying to find similar switches that Matthorn uses on his ultimate light saber sink tube saber that he made. it's not that i can't find any cool ones, it's a matter of "i can't find a site that allows me to purchase one". i'm looking for smaller types of these switches not the vandal switches, not square, or bulky... nice, sleek, small, round, latching switches. if ANYONE knows of some that are able to be purchased on a web site please just post some picks of them so i know what to look for

    thanks!

    thats ALWAYS been the issue with latching buttons.. finding one that has a SMALL footprint..

    (illuminated or not)

    we have found 'some' that are relatively small.. (and illuminated)..but mounting them is a custom process..

    i see no flaming dj just calm down and read a little slower you probably just didn't see the word not but its all good
    revan i like the key one also, that would be great you lose your keys and you have to hotwire your saber i would love to see a remote start like for cars you could fake the force
