I'm looking for the switch that tllim posted at this website:

I'm not electronics trained, so it's kind of hard finding it.
Can anyone advise what keyword I should be searching for?

or this type below. I saw a picture here at the pine 64 forum where someone soldered a similar two pin type to their board

I live in Canada but they can probably all be found at amazon.com or ebay

It should work as long as it fits. Maybe the devs can point us in the right direction?(01-28-2016, 07:39 PM)tllim Wrote:I am sorry I can't read Chinese characters. Could we wire the switch around 4 feet away from the board than?(01-28-2016, 05:56 PM)SkimMilk Wrote: Hi tllim, so we won't be getting the button?
Can you advice what kind of button to use for us non-savvy users?
I'll want to have the buttons on hand when I receive the board.

That is correct.

You can plug this cable at the EXT connector for reste and power on functions, please check pin definition on wiki page. When we define the EXT connector pin layout, we have factor in such cable combination.
