Slim clicky momentary switches are standard input "buttons" on electronic projects. These are half the width of classic 6mm tactile switches so they line up better on a breadboard, just plug them into every-other row. These work best in a PCB but can be used on a solderless breadboard as shown in this tutorial. The two pins are normally open (disconnected) and when the button is pressed they are momentarily closed. They come in a pack...

The pins are normally open (disconnected) and when the button is pressed they are momentarily closed. These buttons are bigger than the 6mm ones we carry, and come in a pack of 15. Each button comes with a candy-colored square cap that snaps on. You get three of each...

These chrome-plated metal buttons are rugged and look real good while doing it! Simply drill a 16mm hole into any material up to 1/2" thick and you can fit these in place, there's even a rubber gasket to keep water out of the enclosure. On the front of the button is a flat metal actuator, surrounded by a green plastic LED ring. On the back there are 3 contacts for the button (common, normally-open and normally-closed) and 2 for the...

A button is a button, and a switch is a switch, but these translucent arcade buttons are in a class of their own. They're the same size as common arcade controls (often referred to as 30mm diameter) but have some nice things going for them that justify the extra dollar. First, they look fantastic, all 6 colors have a crystal translucent glossy look. Although they do not have LEDs built in, we're confident that sticking a diffused LED...

A button is a button, and a switch is a switch, but this LED illuminated arcade buttons is in a class of its own. It's similar in size to an arcade button (and will fit in holes drilled for 'standard' 30mm buttons) but has a built in LED that can be controlled separately from the switch action - either to indicate or just to look good. The body is a black plastic, and a lamp holder fits inside. These were originally designed for...

Quick connector wire sets will make wiring up our arcade-style or metal buttons quicky-quick. Each wire comes as a 'pair' with two 0.11" quick-connects pre-crimped onto 20cm long wires. The wires are then terminated together in a JST 2.5mm/0.1" spaced 2-pin connector (we don't have the exact part number yet for the connector but you can just use 0.1" header) Of course you can cut this off if you don't have use for...

Push once to turn on, push again to turn off! This clicky switch makes a great power switch or mode toggler. We like this switch because it's breadboard friendly and more fun than a power switch. Can reliably handle up to 500mA and up to 50V. This is a really satisfying switch. The leads are not on a perfect 0.1" grid so for use with a breadboard just bend the leads out just a tad and snap into a solderless breadboard or perfboard.

OK, this item is pretty simple - it's a panel mount pushbutton. It's not that exciting, no LEDs, no bells & whistles. But we really like it anyways – look at that lovely rounded shape, that elegant bevel. If you're going to go with a momentary pushbutton, let it be this one! The button is a normally-open micro-switch. When pressed, the contacts short closed and Bob's your uncle!

Quick connector wire sets make wiring up our arcade-style or metal buttons quicky-quick. Each wire comes as a 'pair' with two 0.187" quick-connects pre-crimped. The wires are terminated together in a JST 2.5mm 2-pin connector. This connector will fit in 0.1" headers, so it's breadboard compatible or you can stick two wires into the end. Of course, you can chop this off if there's no use for it. If you need a...
