Don't mean to sound harsh, but I think this button doesn't help either. As far as I've seen its not lightable and much to expensive! ($12!) The only good thing about it is easy screwable with the bezel.
Ok, I just got the button from Newark today as well as the Cherry buttons. It turns out that the Newark button is indeed "Lightable" and has a socket to place a small bulb or LED (depending on what you want to install. The only downside about the Newark button is that you have to spend an extra $1.10 for the lens and I'm sure radio shack has the bulb.
Now the Newark button seems to drop in cost if you purchase a larger amount. I think the price went to $10 for 25 buttons. I agree that that price is high but the button look as it can take a beating.
On the other hand, the Cherry buttons are also priced the same although I forget the discount for larger purchases. The plus side about the Cherry button is that it comes with a lens and bulb.
So attached is the picture of the Newark button . Personaly I think I may just sell the button covers without the button as the threads of both buttons are the same.
Everyone - Thanks for all the input, I hope to have the buttons ready for sale within a few days.
Thanks
Charlie
