Latching Pushbutton Switch 12mm with Red LED Angel Eye Ring — SPST, 32V @ 2A
This 12mm latching pushbutton switch features a chrome metal body and a red LED “angel eye” light ring that provides a uniform glow around the perimeter of the button. Push once to latch ON, push again to release OFF — no need to hold the button. Originally designed for 12V automotive applications, it works in any DC switching application up to 32V @ 2A. The built-in current limiting resistor on the LED means no external resistor is needed for 3V–12V operation.
Electrical Specifications
- Switch Type: SPST latching (push ON / push OFF)
- Contact Rating: 32V DC @ 2A (tested to 5A, recommend staying at 2A)
- Contact Resistance: 50mΩ (typical)
- LED Color: Red (angel eye ring)
- LED Built-in Resistor: Yes — no external resistor needed for 3V–12V
- LED Operating Range: 3V–12V (draws ~10mA at 12V; add 470Ω external resistor for higher voltages)
- LED Max Voltage: ~20V (draws ~20mA)
- Termination: Switch: 2 solder tails | LED: 2 solder pins
- Mounting Hole: 1/2" (12.7mm)
- Max Panel Thickness: 10mm
- Button Diameter: 10mm
- Body Length: 26mm (with solder contacts)
- Body Material: Chrome-plated metal
LED Wiring Options
- LED always ON: Connect LED+ to the input (hot) side of the switch
- LED ON when switch activated: Connect LED+ to the output side of the switch
- Connect LED− to ground in both cases
- Add 470Ω external resistor in series with LED+ for voltages above 12V
Mounting
- Drill a 1/2" (12.7mm) hole in panel up to 10mm thick
- Insert switch from front, secure with supplied nut from rear
- Button must be depressed ~1.5mm into body to activate — prevents accidental activation
Typical Applications
- Automotive accessories: 12V accessory power switch with illuminated status indicator
- Custom enclosures: Illuminated power switch for DIY electronics projects
- LED strip control: Latching on/off switch with visual status feedback
- Robot power switch: Main power switch with LED power indicator
- Marine / off-road: Waterproof-resistant panel switch for harsh environments
