GB: Brand New Empty NewWish Pen Hosts. "THis is Now a Group Buy"

[laser_freak]

For anyone wanting to make their own switch boards, or if lazeerer is not able to get just the switchboards, these small smd switches look identical: Momentary Reset Switch SMD - SparkFun Electronics
In combination with some prototyping pcb cut to the desired shape, it might work just as well for a DIY driver.

Nice Find. However i think we need a Low Profile Switch. That are Usually found On Green Lasers.

Like So.
Digi-Key - P12224SCT-ND (Manufacturer - EVQ-21504M)
or
Digi-Key - P12221SCT-ND (Manufacturer - EVQ-21405R)

The Problem Was the Switch + assembly was too tall. We need something thats Low Profile.

If you compare the datasheets you will find that the EVQ21504M has a height of 4.3mm, and the EVQ21405R has a height of 5.0mm. The switch I linked to also has a height of 4.3mm, so it looks like we will need to find even lower profile switches than the ones you linked to.

I'm too tired too search digikey now, but sparkfun has a lower profile switch with a height of only 1.6mm. Unfortunately the have a current limit of 50mA, but I'm sure digikey has some that are rated to withstand larger currents.

:banghead: Dint catch that. Then They will work. Either one of those switch's. I have One of the Red Ones i linked to above but in Black and it Fits Just Fine.

So I guess we can go with anyone of those 3 Switches or any in that size.

Great.

I received mine today. They were packaged well. I was surprised by the quality, the head especially. I spent approximately 30 seconds assembling each one with a vice.

Thanks again lazeerer!
