Mini Illuminated Momentary Pushbutton - Red Power Symbol

This Mini Illuminated Momentary Power Button is a cute breadboard-friendly tactile switch with a built - in LED. It's an easy way to add a tactile switch and a colorful universal power symbol to your project. The tact switch is similar in size to 6mm tactile switches and can fit into a breadboard. There are two extra pins for the anode and cathode of a small LED that lights up through the top. Remember, this is a momentary button, not an on - off switch. Also, the LED isn't connected to the switch and has no resistor. You'll need to add your own about 1K resistor and control the LED as you like. The cathode of the LED is the pin near the 'line' half of the power symbol. This is the Red version, and we also have it in Blue!

Using this Mini Red Illuminated Momentary Pushbutton is easy. First, snap the button onto your breadboard as it's about the same size as 6mm tactile switches. You can then use it to add a tactile function to your project. To make the built - in LED light up, you'll need to connect an about 1K resistor to it and control it with a microcontroller pin or other device. Remember, this is a momentary button, so it only works when you press it. The LED is not connected to the switch, so you have full control over when it lights up. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean and dry. If you're not using it for a long time, store it in a safe place. And be careful when handling the pins to avoid bending them.
