Title: Naughty Fish On/On/On switch
Post by: zombie_rock123 on January 29, 2017, 09:59:02 PM
Just wondering if anyone has any sources for the switch in the UK?

The one from smallbear mentioned in the build doc has specific poles linked for the positions - http://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/dpdt-on-on-on-pc-mount/

And this one doesn't seem to match:

It doesn't seem to match, but that depends on how you define the contacts. But it's the same switch. The only thing different when I look at the picture is that the one from bitsbox is not a pc-mount one, but if you are not mounting it on a pcb that is of course no problem.

Unfortunately I'll be PCB mounting and the middle position seems to connect different poles ??? Smallbear order here I come!

If you need the pcb-mount then you have to order that one. The connection of the poles however is the same only Smallbear and Bitbox have different numbering
1     4                                   1     6
2     5  (that's Smalbear's)      2     5  (that's Bitbox's)
3     6                                   3      4
