Momentary (Normally Open)

[mur...@eastlink.ca]

Hello, 

Does anyone have a momentary switch (button) (normally open) you are willing to part with? I'm trying to open our van's back door from the inside of the van, something that is normally operated outside (via electric latch/button).  It will be installed through a plastic interior panel of a minivan, so something like the one pictured below, (black vs red preferred).   : )  Thanks!

Come by the space and I will show you what you can recycle from the bins in the electronics room. I think there's one like this and many other, more stylish ones. 

What current would it need to pass?

Tom

I have some but I am not sure what they're rated for. I will send pics tomorrow.

This is labelled 3a125v and 1.5a250v. not sure if that's of use to you.

The switch will be used on a 12v circuit (unsure of the amps) to trigger the lift gate latch from inside our van.  The van (Transit Connect) uses an external switch to trigger the latch to release (no more mechanical linkage) and I plan on tapping into the external switch circuit.  Thank you Tom and Shawn, I'll drop by the Makerspace tomorrow and have a look.

Ok. The switch I sent a pic of is at my house, but I _think_ there's some in the cardboard storage bins on the French cleats in the electronics room.
