Introducing the BKB Xenith

Mcmastercarr sells “wrap around heatshrink”, maybe thats what he uses? :man_shrugging:

I think he just asks the factory to not shrink the heatshrink :rofl:

Thats probably it :sweat_smile:

It’s called work. I’m not afraid if it, and that’s what people are paid to do.

Sadly, this was a midnight thought and I forgot to tell them. Next batch for sure

Just purchased, thanks!

Would this benefit from an antispark (like Flipsky’s), or does it have that sort of protection built in?

Unity has a built in antispark, use that until it fails (fails open usually) then get a better antispark like Flipsky

It has a built in antispark… that has a reputation for failing

Build in a loop key as well. That way if the switch ever fails, at least you can still power the board on and off.

Debatable I have a box of dead fliphite gear

And if it fails closed? Do you have to solder a jumper bypass or something?

After the above, I assume

I wouldn’t use one without building in a loop key as well.

But thats just me.

What’s the difference between failing open/closed?

Fail closed = always on

fail open = never turns on

Ah, i had it backwards. When mechanical valves fail open, they’re ‘communicating’. Fail closed is off.
