i wish i can find something smaller though

 

[ndrew2505]

what kind of switch are you looking for? i know your using it for a power switch but what kind? do you want a momentary, latching push button, slide switch?

 

[jake21]

latching push button.... so i click once its on click again its off....im trying to find the smallest i can buy

These are pretty small: http://www.newark.com/jsp/search/productdetail.jsp?SKU=19C7994&CMP=AFC-OP They're only $0.10 each, though they're not latching, they're momentary (so are the ebay ones you linked)

These are the smallest latching pushbuttons I could find: http://ca.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?qs=YXf4ACKMM4ygNZ3oa8zK8A== They're a buck each, though I'm not sure you can find anything smaller or cheaper (while still being latching)... Here's a datasheet for them: http://sigma.octopart.com/505914/datasheet/E-Switch-TL2201EEZB.pdf

PS: I looked these up using http://octopart.com - a really cool electronic parts search engine that searches multiple distributors.

You need to make sure the switch is rated for what you using it for. Check the currant and mW rating. If you exceed it by to much it will blow the switch.
