A switch is a switch, and an LED is an LED, but this LED illuminated button is a lovely combination of both! It's a medium sized button, large enough to press easily but not too bi g that it gets in the way of your project panel. It 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 with the LED built inside. There are two contacts for the button and two contacts for the LED, one marked + and one -. The forward voltage of the LED is about 2.2V so connect a 220 to 1000 ohm resistor in series just as you would with any other LED to your 3V or higher power supply.This particular button has a green body and LED and is latching on/off. The two switch contacts are either connected or disconnected. When you push the button they will switch from one to the other, like an on-off switch. The LED is separated from the button, so you can make it light up when on, light up when off, always lit, etc.Compatible with Arcade Button Quick-Connect Wire Pairs - 0.11" (10 pack).Features: 16mm diameter illuminated pushbutton with green LED Latching on/off switch action Separate contacts for switch and LED Medium size for easy pressing Black plastic body Technical Details: Max Dimensions: 18.06mm x 18mm x 29.4mm Shaft Dimensions: 14.89mm x 15.56mm x 18.7mm Button Height: 5mm (depressed 3.5mm) Weight: 4.6g Show more
