Note: Switch panels are made-to-order, and may take up to one month to ship.
This is a CNC-machined part (made of ABS), with a black, anodized aluminum faceplate complete with engraved text. The push-button switches are SPST, ON/OFF style (latching or momentary based on your selection), and are rated for 12V/10A. The switches have an LED-illuminated ring, each in the color of your choosing (red, blue, amber, green, or white.)
Each of your two switches can be labeled with the text of your choosing. Uppercase and lowercase text is available, so keep that in mind as you type. Use * to denote you want nothing in that position. This specific switch panel is unique in that it is asymmetrical. The top switch utilizes larger text, while the lower switch utilizes smaller text. This cannot be changed as the switches are placed with this in mind, and not centered in the panel.
Installation is simple: using the provided plastic template, cut/drill the requisite holes to allow the bolts and switches to pass through, then affix the panel using the 4 included bolts and lock nuts. Note that the the bolt heads pass through machined holes in the aluminum faceplate, and tighten against metal washers inside the switch panel. This serves both to distribute the pressure of the tightened bolts more evenly across the ABS, and also to prevent snug bolts from deforming the aluminum faceplate around the bolt heads.
Two wire harnesses are included with this panel. Each switch has its own harness. Wiring is going to be different for each person depending on what they are wiring, and how they are doing it, so that is left up to you to do. Each switch has 6 terminals: NC (2), NO (2), LED(+), LED(-). You can use these terminals (or the wire leads coming out of the harness, if you choose to use them) to configure the switches to operate in different ways. You don't always use ALL 6 leads). For example, the LEDs can be on ALL the time, or only when the switch is activated. A guide is included with your order to help you in this regard.
This seems like a simple part, and it more-or-less is, but there are a lot of steps involved in making it. The chassis and faceplate are both CNC machined. These take time to ship simply because this is a side project I do in my spare time, and my free time is limited, what with work, and autocross, and having a life and all that! The reality is they will probably ship within a week or two, but I don’t like to over-promise on how quickly folks will receive it. You will receive a tracking number when I ship though!
