Where can you get the replacement switch?

Jason Rosa -

Can you provide any specs for this switch? I’d like to buy the replacement switch before disassembling the headset.

I also need to know where to get the replacement switch from !

If anyone wants to try it (I have not), I think the G type switch will work. BUT you will have to find a way to mount it, as it does not have the Metal case for soldering to the PCB.

Searchebay.co.uk for 11 Types, DPDT Self Latching Locking Momentary Push Button PCB SMD Switch 6 Pin

Select Type G

Try at your own risk and good luck

BTW, the size of the switch is 5.8 x 5.8 mm
