Ignition Switch Review(power button for your cab)
NIVO:
Hello Guys. I purchased this product from Computergeeks.com http://www.compgeeks.com/details.asp?invtid=E-PC-S1-N&cat=CAS about a week ago. I must say its perfect for a arcade cabinet. The cord is approximately 80", all wiring and labeling is of great quality, second to none. Installation consists of simply attaching 4 connectors to your motherboard: power switch, reset switch, and led's for power and hdd. All you'll need is your motherboard booklet or simply look on your motherboard(if printed) to see how your layout works with your particular setup. Your done!, its that simple. I know most of you may think" heck I can hack and do that myself." Yes, agreed, as well as I, and most in here. But I was looking to not spend much time in that area and concentrate on other aspects of my project. This also would be invaluable to the true novice or quite simply someone who was looking for a quick solution to a wiring problem. The price of $9.99($7 shipping) was quite fair in my opinion. Definitely a great addition to any project. Works flawless, reasonable costs, and feature perfect. Does everything I was looking for it to do. I will attach 2 pics showing the scale of this remote switch(along with my fat fingers) and the back of the package that pretty much shows all that is involved. Hope this review finds its way in helping anyone in this hobby. Game On!

Doesn't sound so easy for those of us that haven't hacked up our mother boards before. If the installation was easier, I'd be all over it. I just sounds too technical for me..

Not hacking up a motherboard. Its just literally removing wires from old PC switch and putting this one on. Its cake.
