suitable replacement switch for leadlight?

[Dr_Evil]

The switch on my 405nm leadlight has kicked the bucket. It doesn't click anymore and I usually have to remove the batteries to turn it off. Has anybody ever replaced one of these switches? Do you have a link to the switch you used or a part number? This is for one of the older style Leadlights without the LED.

I think anything like this should work

I wish that would work. This needs to be rectangle though. I'd guess about 2 or 3mm x 5 or 6mm.

I'll have to check at home, but I could throw 1 or 2 small rectangle switches in an envelope for you and send them your way. I'll let you know.

Let me know if that's the kind of switch you need. I tested it with my multimeter and it works.

It looks like that might work. Can you get a picture of it on a penny or some other sort of US coin?

You don't have an AG13 common button cell?

Edit: It's 5mm long, 4mm tall (including button), and 3mm wide. It came off of some pen host anyways

No AG13s around here. That should work though. PM on the way.
