Heat Shrink Slide Switch
Once you’ve soldered up the three wires to the terminals, you’ll want to protect the connections with
some heat shrink tubing. Cut a piece of heat shrink tubing that sizes for 30AWG wire to about 56mm in length. Slip these onto the three wires and position them over the exposed connections.
Apply some heat to the tubing to shrink! Ideally want to use hot air.
Install Slide Switch
Now that the switch is wired up and protected, it’s a
good idea to install it into the enclosure before
wiring it to the rest of the circuit. Carefully thread
the into the slide switch cut out on the bottom
enclosure part. Gently push the slide switch into the
enclosure. You may want to use a hand tool or
surface of a table to help force it in if the tolerances
are too tight.
