LED Tactile Button - Red

The Sparkfun LED Tactile Button with a red cap is a versatile and eye-catching addition to any project. This button, which is illuminated by an LED, provides visual feedback when activated. The body of the button measures 12mm, and it is rated for 50mA. While it may not fit easily into a breadboard, a breakout board can solve this issue. Sparkfun also offers this button in a variety of other colors.

With the LED Tactile Button, users can add a vibrant, interactive element to their projects. The red light emitted by the button can serve as a signal, alert, or simply a decorative feature. This makes the button suitable for a wide range of applications, from DIY electronics projects to professional-grade equipment.

One of the key benefits of the Sparkfun LED Tactile Button is its visual feedback feature. This allows users to easily confirm that the button has been pressed, which can be particularly useful in environments with high ambient noise levels where an audible click might be missed.

Another unique property of this button is its 50mA rating. This means it can handle a moderate amount of current, making it suitable for most low-power applications. Despite its small size of just 12mm, this button is robust and designed to last.
