Those with drope resistor mod. question

Where did you guys find the normally closed (n/c) micro switch? All of the ones I've found are normally open. I have resorted to using a toggle switch but would like the WOT switch better.

Has anyone tried it somehow with the Summit MEVI switch since the other (gray) wire is free?

Went to an electric supply store for mine. It was about $4.

Your best bet is at fry's. I bought a long arm NC switch for about $3.00. For those with no Fry's close by, any appliance store will do, but it will cost around 5-8 bucks. These switches will come with three terminals: normally closed (NC), normally open (NO), and ground. So it will actually work for either NC or NO. But what you are looking for is NC.


Jime, over at the N20 forums, has a really good writeup and a whole thread dedicated to this discussion
