Need a switch.

[MacGyver404]

About a year ago I purchased a laser from SkyLasers. After about three months of use the switch became faulty. I now Kindly request your help in acquiring a replacement. The switch dimensions are H 4.5 mm, to top of button, W 6.0 mm, D 3.0 mm. Attached is a picture of the switch that needs replacement. If anyone has a suitable replacement let me know and i will make you an offer.

tried mouser yet?

Naah ..... in mouses, is more easy to find high profile industrial switches (they're more robust and last longer, and mouses don't have space problems, inside, at least normal ones)

More easy to find them in some old keyboards / keypads from photocopiers, fax machines, old answering machines, printers and so on, if you don't find them in your local electronic hardware store .....


Edit: or, if no way for find it, and you need it desperately, you can buy a low-power, low-price o-like green module (they use the same identical switch), and take it away from it (and you also get a second module, in this way )

Lol, ndrew2505 meant Mouser, an electronics catalog that has gotten thinner over the years, not a computer mouse. I havent looked in Mouser, even though i have it sitting less than five feet away. I did check Digi-Key and I found what appears to be a suitable replacement, Digi-Key part num. 450-1175-ND. Unfortunately i am lacking a credit card to make an online purchase. I thought i would check here first to see if i could more easily acquire the necessary part.
