Source for SP3T Switch

Post by strato17 »

My wreck is all finished except for the mini SP3T bright switch. My switch is backordered with mouser and it wont be in until mid june. Does anyone either have one I could buy, or know a place that has them in stock?

Thanks!

Hi Strato. You don't need a SP3T. You need a SPDT center off. Also referred to as a on-none-on. Mouser part number 108-0009-EVX. Also get the toggle switch cap or the amp will buzz when you touch the switch. Mouser part number; 108-0034-EV That one is white. They have a bunch of other colors too if you want to get fancy.

Try mouser 108-MS550C. (It's not ROHS compliant, if that matters.)

Skyboltone, I got the switches you told me to get in the mail today. Unfortunately, there is no center position, they only have two toggle positions. I need three positions, 2 for the different bright caps, and one for bypass, correct?

Yes, you are correct. On-none-on or SPDT center off. I just looked it up. I screwed up. I'm sorry. On-off-On SPDT. Crap. Ah, 108-0005-EVX should do it. I think I even did the same thing to myself one time. I got a dozen or so two position on-on switches I can't figure out why I bought. I set you back a couple of days. Again, sorry.
