## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA6274:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA6274:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)

- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

This 44mm square button is inviting, and ready for all sorts of pressing and pushing. We've seen these on some games of skill in arcades. They're easy to mount on nearly any kind of enclosure. They're not waterproof or weatherproof, so they're best kept indoors.

The body is black plastic, and a lamp holder fits inside. These were originally designed for 'incandescent' lamps, but are easy to use with an LED. Just wrap the legs around the holder as shown. It comes with a clear white LED, but we suggest finding a diffused LED of your color preference to use. You can even disassemble the button itself and slip an image under the clear cover for backlighting.

The button comes with a normally open micro-switch. Once you have put in the LED you like, just snap in the micro-switch. You can always remove it later to change out the LED color. The micro-switch is fairly clicky, so you will hear and feel it when it actuates.

A series-resistor for LED is required so you don't blow up the LED - we suggest you start with 1KΩ. The LED inside is just a plain white LED with a forward voltage of about 3.5V.
