I think they may be available through Richard Dierking Rockets.  He's a big fan 
of HP sauce BTW.
 
Just need a diagram.

Richard,
 
I like the internal mounting option of these switches.
 
Anyone know where to get an aluminum mounting bracket/plate that will work for 
these?
 
Thanks
 
Ian

Yeah, they are the best.  I did a little abuse test on these switches and they 
are very durable/reliable.  There's a positive 'click' when you turn the 
slotted head with a screwdriver.

 

Can be surface mounted on the airframe tube or internally mounted on a board 
(attached photo) with a hole through the tube to access the switch.

I prefer to twist and tuck, but when I use switches I really like these from

Folks,
 
Any advice, thoughts or experience on electronics bay power switches for a 
4inch diameter or above rocket, the electronics bay will also forma the coupler.
 
I have previously used both external switches or internal with an access hole 
and never been completely happy with either for different reasons.
 
So what have you used and where can you get the switches you used?
 
Thanks
