If I could pick your brains
Is this any good?

£3.00 each!

switch bank with 4 separate itt schadow switches, each switch is non latching with six contacts

It seems that these are not interlatching (not even latching), so I would'nt think they'd be useable.

But if you could find the interlatching bar...

Not really

The pitch between switches looks wrong & more importantly it is NON latching.

I`ve mentioned this before but Toneluck switches make the correct replacement switches & the correct size buttons !

Rob,

Have you sourced anything from ToneLuck?

Dealing with chineese companies is not easy at all..

Jakob E.

No I haven`t, but they have European distribution.

Alright everyone in the USA, here;s what I used:

From PEI-Genesis (866) 611-1089

part number: SCH F4UGRF1501C0415 (all the '0's are zero's, not Letter 'O's...)
The cost each is $15.13 each and they come with black switch caps.

They are 4-pole so they are a little deeper, but they're standard Schadow switches, and you may choose to do as I did and parallel poles for improved reliability.

Shipping on my order was $8.00, so buy all that you need in one go, rather than one at a time, or you'll end up paying more than you need to for shipping.

Quick question...where do I see how to hook these bad boys up.

I think I am the "Switch Retard" otherwise known as the "Special Kid" when it comes to this.



Anyway, do we have a diagram as to what goes where in regards to the 1176 project?

Thanks,
Michael

P.S. Keith I have not forgotten about emailing...will do soon...promise.
