    Somewhere between here and there
    I was wondering if anyone knew another source for the 3A 125V switches besides radio shack. I already built one nicostick by using Nicowolf's directions and want to build some more for back ups. I was just wondering if anyone has found another supplier for that switch besides radio shack. I have looked online for a while and have been to my local electronics store and can't seem to find them anywhere else. I did find some that were close but they were too long to fit in the box. I would appreciate any input on this. Thanks!

    This isn't nearly the same size as the one I think you are referring to, but it does work very very well. The button is really small compared to that RS one, but it fires every time, it's rated at 1A 115V wich is plenty. THis is all I ever use.

    Digi-Key - GH1365-ND (Manufacturer - 30-3)

    PS this website sells battery holders too.
