A low cost miniature toggle
switches providing exceptional value. With this toggle
switches spring loaded return to centre switch, which
makes it perfect for operating point motors (Hornby,
PECO, SEEP). Simply pull back briefly to operate the
points in one direction and forwards for the other.
Three
position switch, two "on" and one "off" (centre). This
switch allows control of two separate circuits at the
same time. Can be used to switch DC power control
between two separate tracks with the addition of being
able to select neither.
Suitable for operating
signals. Can also be used to change points with the
addition of a push button switch.

(size 25mm high - approximately a 3rd smaller than mini
toggle switches)
Sub-Miniature
Toggle Switch (on-on) DPDT
Suitable for operating two
different signals. Can also be used to change points
with the addition of a push button switch.

Miniature low cost push to
make switch with red button. This switch can be used to
supply a short burst of power to a point motor.
Non-locking. Overall dimensions 28mm long, 10.5mm
diameter. Rated 250mA 125V AC. Panel cut-out 7mm.
Miniature
push to 'break' switch with black button
Miniature low cost push to
break switch with black button. Suitable for situations
were you want to temporarily turn off a circuit.
Non-locking. Overall dimensions 28mm long, 10.5mm
diameter. Rated 250mA 125V AC. Panel cut-out 7mm.
A miniature slide switch
with solder tag connections with break before make DPDT
contacts. Ideal for switching lights on or off, or
operating signals (on)(on).
A sub-miniature filament
lamp. Ideal for illumination. I have used these to
produce street and building lighting, on model layouts
to great effect. Dimensions 1.48mm long x 4.3mm
diameter, pin length 7mm.
LED's require very little
power, and produce little heat when compared to normal
filament based bulbs and are Ideal to be run from a
battery pack. These miniature (5mm) LED's incorporate a
in-built series resistor enabling the LED to be directly
connected to a 5V or 12V (depending on purchase) supply
lines without the normal hassle of fitting a resister.
All devices are intensity and colour matched and housed
in diffused coloured packages. Cathode identified by
flat on body.
LED's
require very little power, and produce little heat when
compared to normal filament based bulbs and are ideal to
be run from a battery pack. These miniature (3mm) LED's
incorporate a in-built series resistor enabling the LED
to be directly connected to a 5V or 12V (depending on
purchase) supply lines without the normal hassle of
fitting a resister. All devices are intensity and colour
matched and housed in diffused coloured packages.
Cathode identified by shorter lead.

A range of LEDs in a
side-viewing package. Package is 5 by 1.5mm. Light comes
from a 1.5mm lenz. Cathode is identified by shorter
lead. Viewing angle 70°.
Suitable for use with LED
without built in resister (eg
3mm LED above).
1 connected to a battery
will protect all LED's connected to that power supply.
1W
Industry standard high power
metal film resistors coated with a red non-flammable
lacquer which provides electrical, mechanical and
climatic protection.

A novel LED holder with
200mm leads pre-stripped and tinned which simply clips
to the rear of the LED and is retained in position by a
patented clamping device. The holder will significantly
reduce assembly time and ideal if soldering is a
problem. Dimensions 14.5 x 2.6mm.
4AA battery holder moulded in black
thermoplastic. Suitable for a wide range of
applications. Voltage when fitted with 4AA batteries is
