Adafruit Micro Switch w/Wire - Three Terminals

Micro-switches are versatile components, essential in arcade buttons and joysticks, and ideal for mechatronics projects or basic sensing needs. Their tactile and momentary nature ensures a clicky feel when pressed, returning to open position upon release.

This micro-switch features a 3-inch long wire lever actuator and three 0.25-inch terminals. Commonly used in coin detectors, the terminals are strategically placed along the bottom. Uniquely designed for low torque, the wire actuator can be bent to accommodate various project requirements.

Suggested applications include bump sensors due to the low torque and precise activation. Additional actuator options like a bump, roller lever, and flat lever offer further customization. Without detailed specifications, usage is recommended under 12VDC and 50mA for safety.
