Hey Fedi, is there any good brick-and-mortar place to get little electrical parts, other than Micro Center? I'm planning to add a region switch to my new Spice GameCube and I'd like something small I can hide in one of the expansion spots, but I don't need the hundred of them Amazon wants to sell me. Do general hardware stores carry this stuff? I live in a smallish town and don't have many good options.
I do have a Micro Center in the region, but it's an hour and a half drive through some perilous traffic and it's a trip I don't want to make for one tiny switch.
I *should* be saving this project until I've moved into the new house, the CRT TV I'm keeping is already in storage and I'm about to rehome the other one and while I'm staying with my parents for December I won't have a TV of my own to hook things up to, but ADHD brain weasels are gonna do their thing.
@trixter Do you have an Ace Hardware nearby? They have toggle, rocker and push switches.
Not cheap, but convenient.
@jenny753 I did until about a year ago. Alas.
@trixter search for electronics supply near me, local shops that carry resistors/capacitors/components are your best bet, but can be tricky to find. Some larger electric supply places may have electronic components, but most of the time it's a mom & pop place that doesn't have an online presence
@Cax6ton All we seem to have are supplies for electricians, not hobbyists.
