Description

The Arcade Button with LED - 30mm Translucent Clear is a beautifully translucent arcade button with built-in LEDs that create a vibrant wash of light. This button is designed to fit a 30mm diameter hole and can be securely screwed into materials up to approximately 20mm thick. The button features a smooth action with a tactile feel, incorporating a tiny micro-switch with gold plated contacts.

The LEDs are surface-mounted with resistors inside the button body, connected in parallel with a 200-ohm resistor. This design allows the LED to be powered from a microcontroller pin or directly from 5V with a current draw of about 10mA. It can also operate at 3.3V with lower brightness.

This clear translucent button offers a crystal glossy look even when unlit and includes two LED contacts separate from the switch contacts for LED control.
