Review on πŸ”΄ Ulincos Latching Push Button Switch U16F5 1NO1NC SPDT ON/Off Black Shell With Red Power Symbol LED - Designed for 16mm (5/8") Applications by Brad Ward

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The LED is too bright and you cannot add a dimmer.

Not suitable for use in vehicles. Maybe if you only drive during the day. The LED lights on this thing are way too bright. If only the LED shorted out internally by itself, apart from what you're trying to turn on/off. So it can be connected to the car's dimmer circuit. Another thing I noticed is that when the switch is in the "off" position, the ring that glows around the "power" icon is uneven. This is because the button itself sits crooked in the "button body". Also, the switch looks nice, feels pretty well made. Just doesn't work for my needs.

Pros
  • latching switch: press, ON; Press again, OFF
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
