Default Looking for switch that uses a pin for off/on

Some where I saw a switch that uses a pin as off and on, has no moving parts, and has a red ribbon on the pin. I believe you remove the pin for on and insert for off. Can anyone provide site where I may have seen this or any info. Thanks.

Default No Longer Available...

Hollyday Designs used to sell these but stopped making them early this year.

They have a "HOWTO" page on their site listing all needed parts, part numbers, wires and instructions if you want to roll your own.

Default Yippie Skippie!

I have one and it works great. I just used a 5/64th bit (which is a tad smaller than the 3/32 pin) and drilled that into the side of the fuse. The pin goes in smoothly and is held on very well with no chance of it slipping out. It regulates your pack down to 5.2volts which is great if you are using servos that CANNOT go over 6 volts. Very nice saftey feature. -Steve
