NKK

I like the NKK M2100 series. Round switches are easier to use for DIY since you can just drill a hole instead of figuring out how to make a nice rectangle.

(this uses NKK rocker and toggle...from the days of my illumination phase...)

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

For ease of DIY installation / panel fabrication, I'm partial to appropriately rated round rocker switches myself. Plenty of options such as metal, lighted plastic, backlit, shiny or black, etc.

Such as:

You can also consider pushbutton switches in a round hole panel mount configuration as well.

This parts fits a 7/8" hole, which is the size of the chassis punch for tube sockets I already own. Excellent.
