Hi!
I sometimes have fantasies...
This time, it would be an amp with the power-Switch on top of it.
I imagine something like a push-Button, D≈20mm, height >= 30 mm, that would switch with a fat „ka-chunk“...
Been searching on various places but haven’t found it.
Where could be a place to find crazy stuff like this?

Thanks!
David
 
I was just talking about a large three blade knife switch a day ago. It could just control a low voltage which in turn

I could sell you this one - shipping might be a prohibitively expensive 🙄

It's 10" long!

Thomas are indeed absurd, but… too steampunky. Thanks

A race car kill switch would be big and absurd, might look cool

This is a funny alternative!

"Absurd" seems to have been a too drastic expression. I thought of something like the switch on a table, see link...

I use the paddle-switch for obvious-OFF uses.

Non-US knife switches can be bought on Amazon.

I worked in industrial controls. 20mm x 30mm isn't absurdly big by any means, would look right at home on a control panel. Find out what electrical supplier your electrician buys from, and go there looking for an Allen-Bradley switch.
