- Teardown of an LED Arcade Button
You can wire the LED always on, or even use the included switch to switch the LED. Quite a interesting little button! Very glad I got my hands on them!
🎉🥳💚
There's quite a few ways you can use these, or you don't even have to use the LEDs at all!
But I shall be using them in such a way that they're always off, until the oscillator for that button, is playing, then it shall be on.
Also, these oscillators will be wired so that any one, or all, can be turned on at once. That way they can kinda act as the "backing track" to the spooky synth box while using the VCOs across the top.
If you guys can think of a better name, drop your suggestion below! Will definitely consider better options! 😊

Love those illuminated buttons! The synth box will look awesome.
I'm so excited about this thing :3 I need these dang chips to get here so I can get to work! XD
Cool. I liked seeing the inside of these. I've used some standard HAPP arcade buttons in the past and experimented with lighting them. These seem pretty convenient in that way being that they are actually meant to be lit up.
Thank you very much for this teardown video! These seem much easier to take apart than the Japanese style arcade buttons.
No problem! They really are very simple to tear apart, I had never had one before then so I thought I'd share :D
Yay I got a mention ;)
😘😉
Can i use it for arduino switch selector?
I have a retro arcade cabinet
perfect! thx
No problem
since you're messing with arcade buttons and know about electronics i need a question answered maybe you can help me, i have 6 led buttons that are 12v buttons they can be underdriven at 5v ive tested it and they were a brigtness i was happy with. my current encoder in my diy hitobox i made cannot run all 6 on a daisy chain it can just do two but it's kinda shitty and i think that's why i think they took a short cut somewhere. what i wanna know if you think the brook zero pi could run the 6 led buttons via daisy chain on the 5v port on the screw terminal if you need links i can provide them but i literally cant find an answer to this question and i need to know so i can proceed forward with upgrading my build and making one for my dad
It seems like it would be possible, but I honestly don't know off the top of my head, the big thing is is current, having enough current to supply them all
We're you buy these button at?
I got the LED arcade buttons on eBay, reasonably priced too 💪
How can I wire these
The outer lugs attached to the housing are the power legs, the ones on the switch will say something like "com" to show ground, the other two legs are to give power. So one is always on when not pressed, the other is only on when pressed
All I have on mine is two wires connected to the button
It sounds like an unlit version of the arcane button, so no light inside? Usually it's an LED, which is polarized, where as the non-lit version is just the switch, so it doesn't need any specific wiring. Just as long as it's connected in the circuit as intended.
@@SpectrumDIY I’m buying new buttons that have led inside like yours
@@SpectrumDIY how many volts you need for the light
I ran 9-12v for mine, but it depends on your buttons, some might use a specific, or it might use the range. Mine I needed to add a resistor in series to prevent it blowing out the LED
@@SpectrumDIY thanks a lot for your help
