- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA3838:1.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.

## Description

Quick connector wire sets make wiring up Adafruit's arcade-style or metal buttons quicky-quick. Each wire comes as a 'pair' with two 0.25" quick-connects pre-crimped. The wires are terminated together in a JST 2.5mm 2-pin connector. This connector will fit in 0.1" headers, so it's breadboard compatible or you can stick two wires into the end. Of course, you can chop this off if there's no use for it.

If you need a connector for the other side, try this JST XH (matching part from Digi-Key here)

Adafruit have found these work best with our:

- [Massive Arcade Buttons (will fit both the LED and switch contacts)](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=massive%20arcade%20buttons)
- [Large Arcade Buttons](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=large%20arcade%20buttons)[(will fit both the LED and switch contacts)](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=massive%20arcade%20buttons)
- [Micro Switch with Wire](https://core-electronics.com.au/micro-switch-w-wire-three-terminals.html)

But they are **not compatible** with Adafruit's smaller LED and mini arcade and buttons. For those, you'll want either the [0.11" Quick-Connect Wire pairs](https://core-electronics.com.au/arcade-button-quick-connect-wire-pair-set-of-10-pairs.html) or the [0.187" Quick-Connect Wire pairs.](https://core-electronics.com.au/arcade-button-and-switch-quick-connect-wires-0-187-10-pack.html)

### Technical Details

- Wire length (including connectors): 215mm / ~8.5"
