gilsaluki Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 What type of rocker switch can be used as a replacement for the XL/XE power switch? I have noticed it has three legs (terminals). SPST? DPST? What is the third terminal for? Has anyone found a reasonable, common replacement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 It's something close to a C&K 7101J1AV2QE2. It's SPDT, and the third terminal is not used and is probably for stability. http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/c-k-components/452602263/CKN2011-ND http://www.ck-components.com/15112/rockers_7oct15.pdf/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillC Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 The 300SP1J1BLKM7QE from E-Switch is basically the same as the one Bryan linked,same voltage/current ratings and PCB footprint, but is only $3.04 instead of $6.16 http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/300SP1J1BLKM7QE/EG4314-ND/668612 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
