  Go to the parallax site, Browse All Products/Components/Miscellaneous and scroll down until you see the little pushbutton.· It is just above the Tact Switch.

  You can get those kinds of switches in bulk from companies like Digi-Key and Mouser.

  Hey Jon,
  
  You wouldn't happen to have a part number?
  
  I looked at the Digi-Key site and needless to say making my own switch from a hairbrush, a paperclip, and some twine would be easier than sorting through the specs!· LOL!
  
  I am designing a board that uses the OEM BS2 to drive the outputs...I have modeled the power supply section after the BOE rev A.
  
  I thought the switch used on the BOE appeared a bit more robust than a numberof others switches of similar type.
  
  
  Thanks,
  
  Rus

  I don't have the part number -- but I do have a Digi-Key (Sep-Dec 2004) catalog ... and the ability to crack it open.
  
  In two seconds I was directed to page 1078 of the catalog, and Figure 1 on that page is identical to the switch on our boards.· There are about 15 options for that board spacing, here's the part numbers I would suggest investigating:
  
  P8010S-ND
  P10890S-ND
  P12192S-ND
  P12195S-ND
  
  Okay, now you owe me a Guiness (I'm Irish ).

  Rus,
  
  I have been needing that part number also. Glad you asked!
  
  Have you come across a part number for the power connectors? I have the NX-1000 24/40 board. The wall wart available through Parallax connects to that board.
  
  Jon, Thanks for replying! I'd buy you a Guiness too. I am part Irish.
  
  Thanks,
  Frank

  The part number for the power connector that I am using is...
  
  2.1mm (DigiKeyCP-202A)·
  
  From what I understand this is a pretty common plug size...however, I am also open to other suggestions....

  Thanks Rus!
  
  I will check that out later. The DigiKey search function isn't working at the moment.

  Take a look at Digikey's SC1153.· It's the same as what is on the BOEs.
