Electronic Power On/Off Switch with LED Battery Monitor and Lipo Cut-Off

Fed up with that old technology mechanical on/off switch on your radio control model? Want something more reliable?

Need a simple LED indication of the amount of power left in your battery pack?

Look no further than this new innovative electronic switch that also incorporates some great features and can be used with any radio system.

The Etronix power switch is a tiny MCU controlled on/off switch perfect for your RC model and is normally used to isolate the receiver NiMH or LiPo battery pack from the actual receiver or in other low power applications.

A simple push button operates the switch eliminating the problems associated with an ordinary mechanical switch and intermittent contacts. The sealed unit is plastic and can easily be mounted to your model by screws or using double sided tape. It can even be mounted directly to the transponder mount of your RC car with the supplied fixing plate.

The switch will also indicate the remaining capacity and condition of your Life/NiMH/NiCad/LiPo battery via the on-board LED indicators. Green 80-100%; Orange 60-79%; Red 20-59%; Red Blinking <20%.

It also features a LiPo mode and by turning this on, the switch unit will auto detect low LiPo voltage and cut off power to protect a 2S 7.4 Volt LiPo from over discharging. This feature alone is worth it's weight in gold and will protect those expensive LiPo battery packs if your RC car or model is accidentally left switched on!

The Etronix power switch is truly innovative and is just what RC modellers have been waiting for!
