Impedance Selector??
What Brand/Model switch are you guys using for an Impedance Selector? Does anyone know which model Ohmite That the Komet Uses

hello there, i think you can get those from mouser but they are very expensive---around $20-30 i believe. rh
Re: Impedance Selector??
I am planning to use the same type found on M*rsh*ll amps. I know that AES sells it for $17.
Re: Impedance Selector??
Hoffman has industrial strength ones for $10.00. Really nice.
Re: Impedance Selector??
Ted Weber has one for almost half that... $6 a pop. Thats what I'm using.

Re: Impedance Selector??
I looked at the picture on their site showing the impedance selector and I would say it is a Serie 711 3 taps switch ( 7amps, 125V). It is a non-stocked item at Mouser, it sells for $35.67 each and there is a minimum buy quantity of five.Funkalicousgroove wrote: Does anyone know which model Ohmite That the Komet Uses
Nice product but too expensive for my projects.

I found the Ohmite 711's for $26 ea, which is a small price to pay when you consider the expense and energy to replace an Output transformer when a cheap switch shorts!!! Thanks all!!

I used a switch recommended by Robert (Thanks!), Electroswitch 02-04POS/3P/1Section, Mouser#690-C5P0304N-A, and it worked great. To safeguard against failure I used all three terminals in parallel. (Learned this trick from the TwoRock guys).
