I'm building an emulation box based on a Raspberry Pi, which I am mounting in a PC case.
I'm in the final stages now, but I'm having a bit of trouble with the power switch.
I'm using an ATX case, which obviously has a momentary power switch.
I need to use a latching switch for the Pi, and I'm hoping to find a latching version of the current power switch so that it's a simple like-for-like swap.
It's a standard switch like is found on pretty much every ATX machine, like the one in this photo:
I've seen switches like this in all sorts of devices, so it must be some kind of off the shelf item, but I can't seem to find out what this type of switch is called.
Can anyone put me out of my misery?
(and also, does a latching version exist?)
