Looking for a DBDP on/off switch

Looking for a DBDP on/off switch

Looking for a DBDP on/off switch

(OP)
Can anyone help me find an alternating action switch.  The switch works like a mechanical pen; press for on all the time, and press for off all the time.  It's typically works like a computer on/off switch.  Any info or tip would be appreciated.

RE: Looking for a DBDP on/off switch

Every switch manufacturer makes them. But don't look for "DBDP" - never heard that acronym. Just google "on-off switch" for a huge selection.

Check this for a general info on different switch types. http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/components/switch.htm The one you are looking for is called a "Push-Push On/Off switch".

Or searh for "push-on push-off". That's what most of them in the US call them.
