This 60mm square button is large, inviting, and ready for all sorts of pressing and pushing. We've seen these on some games of skill in arcades. They're easy to mount on nearly any kind of enclosure. They're not waterproof or weatherproof, so they're best kept indoors.

The body is black plastic, and a lamp holder fits inside. These were originally designed for 'incandescent' lamps, but are easy to use with an LED. Just wrap the legs around the holder as shown. It comes with a clear white LED, but we suggest finding a diffused LED of your colour preference to use. You can even disassemble the button itself and slip an image under the clear cover for backlighting.

The button comes with a normally open micro-switch. Once you have installed the LED you like, simply snap in the micro-switch. You can always remove it later to change out the LED colour. The micro-switch is fairly clicky, so you will hear and feel it when it actuates.
