Using a car Engine Start Button

(1/4) > >>

cyberphox:
Does anyone know how to wire one of those Illuminated Engine Start Buttons to power on household devices?
I'm building a sound booth and will have a mixer and cd player that I'd like to somehow wire up a power bar to one of these buttons. I imagine most of them are for 12v so I'm wondering how to accomplish this?

Savannan:
...and this is arcade related how?  Just because it has a start button? .... LMFAO!!

DaOld Man:
You could use an scr or relay to set on when the start button is pressed, but you will need an "off" button or switch to turn it off. Relay would be pretty simple. SCR would be a little more work, due to switch AC instead of DC.

Did I say it was? I would imagine people on here have  a lot of knowledge on electrical wiring. And a lot of people are willing to help out with these types of things. Then there's the other group who troll and give smart ass answers to everything....

Probably could have taken the higher ground and responded to DaOld instead. ::)
