Anyone know what these switches are that they use? Maybe they aren't lighted at all.

EAO -  Keith called it.

Those are nice , but not cheap. I love those switches. Swiss quality

A group buy would be fitting.
 
Wow beautiful, they are some of the nicest switches I've seen. The only place I see these is Newark for $16.46 each with a huge lead time :-[

I don't see Series 11 in their catalog, I guess they are older?
 
For those living in Northern Europe: Elfa sells them.
latching one pole 24,10 euros,
latching two pole 36,10 euros,
lenses 1,55 euros (colours: red, yellow, green, blue, white)
quite expensive...
 
I believe this is it: http://www1.elfa.se/elfa~eu_en/go.jsp?s=eu-en&a=0/48C87C5BDDE7453BE10000000A0A036A/48C87DAADDE7453BE10000000A0A036A/48C8BA2BDDE7453BE10000000A0A036A/48C97E7F83B9453BE10000000A0A036A

I guess these would be SPST? Not sure if there is a DPDT type one or how those work.
 
EAO series 11:
One pole switch has actually two separate switches, one normally open switch and one normally closed switch. Of cource you can wire them as SPDT. Two pole switch has two normally open sections and two normally closed sections which you can wire as DPDT.

Elfa order codes:
35-593-25 one pole latching
35-593-33 two pole latching
35-605-96 chrome front nut
35-605-21 red lens
35-605-47 yellow lens
35-605-54 green lens
35-605-62 blue lens
35-605-70 white lens
 
Those are quite nice.. Anyone have an idea of quantity pricing??

EDIT: nevermind
 
What's the difference between these two in the on/offs?

11-131.825 – off-(on)/on-(off)

11-271.825 – off-on/on-off

The first one is cheaper by a little but I don't get the difference.
 
Cool got it, that's what I figured.

I was at Brent's place today picking up my Marconi's and he mentioned he's moving away from them because of how ridiculously expensive they are. Said he was going to go with the same ones he uses on his 312s but put an LED inside which would be really nice.

Man, his place is amazing, so much stuff in one room it's awesome. Such quality work.
