PowerSwitch Mod Help

Smitty751 · May 5, 2004

I am looking to mod a power switch into the top of my case. I was thinking a red push button with a plastic shield (A classic "Do Not Push This Button" look) or a decked out flip switch. But I have been having trouble finding them.

Does anyone know where I can get a nice switch. Or at the very least something I can mod into a nice switch?

There's 2 places you can get the toggle style ones from. I've never seen a momentary pushbutton with a shield though.

might want to test which barb to tie into with a multimeter before you put it in your box, so you dont fry something. thats all i can think of, gl!

i have an old black and decker screw driver (cordless) and it was a switch that you push and hold left or right to screw in a direction.. Well i tried wiring it to my comp with aligator clips.. works.. and also it has an LED, which im gonna desolder and then solder on my green one, it has a red one, which i had on the IDE LED pins. Its momentary works like a charm.. game pads... they work too..
