mxuteuk 50pcs Black Latching Mini ON/Off Switch Self-Lock Micro Push Button Switch DC 30V 1A for Light Lamp Wall Outlet DIY SMD Flashlight Type BK-1208

My understanding is that these are generally used in flashlights, and they definitely have that very positive "click" that you'd expect for that use. But I've found them to be very handy general purpose switches for all sorts of electronics projects. The fact that they are latching rather than momentary makes them perfect for power switches where you might usually have to use something like a slide or toggle switch.You can easily solder wires directly to the leads on the switch, but if you put a couple bends into them, they can also be surface mounted. I created a simple footprint for the switch in KiCad that I've used on a couple projects now. They might be a little chunky compared to most SMD components, but if you've got other big devices on the board like battery holders and connectors, they shouldn't be too out of place.

I use these buttons for building circuits with my students for their "Energy & Electricity" course. They work well when you tape them down to copper tape or soldered to wired. Great quality product. Be careful when soldering though, The heat can burn out the button if you get too close. Take it easy. Feel me?

No issues whatsoever

This is my review of Mxuteuk’s Micro Push Button Switches.I have used about 10 of these in miniature dioramas that I build.So far, I have not had a single problem.They are basically on/off switches, that perform well.

I have used six of these so far and have one that contacts intermittently. Not that big of deal typically (just put in a new one) except that the install is all glued up and can't be disassembled to replace it. Besides that they seem to be OK.

Exactly what I needed, and it arrived exactly when I wanted it. Easy to solder wires to it, and easy to hide the terminals afterwards with shrink-wrap tubing. The form factor is pretty small, which is great.

Best bag for the buck. These worked out perfectly for my diorama.

Does what it's suppose to do!!The attached image highlights the White Latching Switches red circles on top of this custom built Radio Controlled FPV Flying Wing. The switch on the left controls the on / off power for the FPV Video Transmitter ( VTX ) and the switch on the right controls the on / off function of the rc planes Lime Green 5v COB LED strip lights mounted in between the trailing edge and the center motor mount.
