Warning. These are dual switches

Oh, be careful with those switches. They are not what they seem. They are actually CHANGEOVER switches. The LED is shorted out by the switch when they switch to the "off" position. Although it is not shown on the PIN identification sticker. I used them as slave (or parallel) switches for my application, assuming they were SPST if SPDT. He closed the center contact to ground, which I connected to the cathode of the internal LED. Luckily the fuse took the brunt and my controllers seemed to survive. Information about them will be distorted, and the switch can cause damage. The buyer should be careful. Return to the cathode of the LED. this.; the third connection of the switch. This limits the current (just over 1mA) when the switch is in the OFF position. And surprisingly, even with the limiting resistor on, the LED is still quite bright blue when the switch is in the ON position.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Mostly ok, but...
