Rugged Metal Pushbutton - 22mm 6V RGB Momentary

By popular demand, we now have rugged metal buttons with a full color RGB LED ring light! These chrome-plated metal buttons are rugged, but certainly not lacking in flair.

This is a 22mm Momentary version of the RGB pushbutton. Simply drill a 22mm hole into any material up to 1/4" 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. On the back there are 4 metal contacts for the RGB LED ring (one anode and 3 cathodes for red, green, and blue) and 4 spade contacts for the switches.

To use the RGB LED: 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! For higher voltages (e.g. 12V or 24V), add a 1K ohm resistor in series with the LED cathodes to keep the current at ~20mA. You can PWM the RGB pins to create any color.

To use the switches: There are two electrically separate SPST switches inside. The inner spade contacts are normally-closed (open when pressed). The outer spade contacts are normally-open (closed when pressed).

The LED and switches are electrically separate, allowing microcontroller control and reading.
