Hi all,

has anyone got a contact for getting small quantities of bulgin switches? Only want 2, and most of the distributors are only interested in large quantities... even RS have them on a special order only thingy which costs a load...

Just a thought. Contact the manufacturer direct to their sales dept. Tell them that your supplier can't get them and you are desperate. They won't sell single items to you, but they may send you them gratis as samples. This has worked for me when items have been out of stock at a wholesaler and I was up against a deadline. Good luck!
