These chrome-plated metal buttons are rugged, but certainly not lacking in flair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a \u003cstrong\u003e19mm On\/Off\u003c\/strong\u003e version of the RGB pushbutton. Simply drill a 19mm hole into any material up to 0.45\" thick and you can fit these in place – there's even a rubber gasket to keep water out of the enclosure. On the front of the button is a flat metal actuator, surrounded by a plastic RGB LED ring.\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003eOn the back there are 4 metal contacts for the RGB LED ring (one anode and 3 cathodes for each red, green, and blue) and 3 spade contacts for the switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo use the RGB LED:\u003c\/strong\u003e Power the anode at 3-6V and light up the red, green, and blue LEDs by pulling their designated contacts to ground as you desire – there's a built in resistor! If you want to use this with a higher voltage, say 12V or 24V, simply add a 1K ohm resistor in series with the LED cathodes to keep the LED current at around 20mA. You can PWM the RGB pins to make any color you like.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo use the switch:\u003c\/strong\u003e There is one SPDT switch inside the button. Looking at the bottom of the switch, the common contact is the one to the left of the \u003cstrong\u003eC\u003c\/strong\u003e. Above it are two spade contacts, one labeled \u003cstrong\u003eNO\u003c\/strong\u003e (normally-open) and one labeled \u003cstrong\u003eNC\u003c\/strong\u003e (normally-closed). When you press the button, the NO contact will close to the common contact, and the NC contact will open from the common. When you press the button again, it will revert back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe switch and LED are electrically separated, so to change the color, use a microcontroller to both read the contact pins and toggle the color control pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-technical-details-content\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse in\"\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrill hole diameter: 19mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch current: not rated, we recommend no more than 1A \/ 24VDC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitch contacts: 1 SPDT with common, NO and NC contact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Chrome plated brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContact resistance: \u0026lt; 50 mOhm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsulation resistance: \u0026gt; 1000 Mohm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature: -20 C to +55 C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMechanical life: \u0026gt; 500,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrical life: \u0026gt; 50,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePanel thickness: 1-12mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating pressure: 1.5 - 2.5 N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating stroke: 2mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED rated voltage: 6V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul id=\"product-files\"\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Pi Hut","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43493243617357,"sku":"uxn1787257992822","price":8.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/1182\/8301\/files\/rugged-metal-onoff-switch---19mm-6v-rgb-onoff_1.jpg?v=1787257997","url":"https:\/\/www.grandorchard.shop\/products\/rugged-metal-onoff-switch-19mm-6v-rgb-onoff","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
