A compact, breadboard-friendly illuminated tactile switch featuring a blue LED that shines through a universal power symbol on top. Adds both a momentary pushbutton and a colourful indicator to your project in a single component.
Similar in size to standard 6 mm tactile switches, this button snaps directly into a breadboard. It has four pins — two for the switch contacts and two for the built-in LED (anode and cathode).
Key Features
- Illuminated Power Symbol – Blue LED shines through the universal power icon
- Breadboard-Friendly – Comparable to standard 6 mm tactile switches
- Momentary Action – Spring-return, not a latching on/off switch
- Independent LED – LED is not connected to the switch; control it separately
- 4-Pin Design – Two pins for switch, two pins for LED
Ideal For
- Breadboard prototyping with visual feedback
- Power button indicators on custom enclosures
- Interactive electronics projects

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
