Title: 3pdt with pcb, odd Packaging!
Post by: davepedals on December 21, 2016, 05:30:33 PM
Just got these delivered , never seen packaging like this before ... Kinda cool, however these will not fit my 1590A enclosures without lots of modification. Going to have to cut a section of the switch pcb off for the resistor and LED, but I'm hooking that up a different way so no big deal. and the other side where the nine volt connection goes . Fortunately there's another nine volt connection going to everything necessary to operate correctly. $12.90 /free shipping with Amazon prime for five 3pdt switches and PCBs

Looks like you might only fit four (or five at a push) across the width of your chair.  So that makes them about five inches across?  No, that definitely won't fit a 1590A.

Hey dave, the good thing is you already have a thing to put your 3pdts inside, on your table.  :icon_mrgreen: With some leds, water, oil and an air pump it will be a very nice psychedelic lampshade  8) 8)

The funny thing is that actually is a lamp that they're sitting in! A tiny chair lamp , I really didn't think about that when I posted. I have managed to grind off enough to where it fits just fine now,  lost the LED and resistor connection but that's no big deal for my project. Yeah... it looks giant in that photograph !   :icon_biggrin:
