Hi tony2stix,
I agree with what they were saying above...
Couple of thoughts:
1) Hang on to one or two of em, trade the rest. Hang on to em because:
2) Some of the devices used to regulate 5v, vv, HV mods are active-high. Others are active-low. So, you could probably find a use for these switches if you really wish to. I forget what devices have active-low logic... maybe a switching regulator or booster.
Only worth keeping if you really like the feel of the switches tho, since the inhibit/enable pins only need low-amp (small) switches. Even in these cases, people often use high-amp normally open switches and don't use the enable pins.
I only mention this since you said they are really nice switches.
Another thought... Once you have a voltage regulator, you can use nc switches. You would need the proper resistor wired to pull the pin high, but the button would be normally closed and ground it out (low). Pressing the button would open the switch removing the ground "short" and allowing the pin to go high, probably through another resistor. This is not a proper design/description so check it out 1st.
There are inverters that switch logic levels too. I'm not one of the electronics experts here. But if you really like the switches, someone should be able to chime in and give you a fairly simple circuit that inverts the logic of the pin, or uses a part that already has the proper gate logic.
So, there could be a 5v or vv mod in your future with those nice switches.
If you can switch it out for the same button that you like for NO rather than NC, great.
2 cents.
just sayin'.....
