Using this arcade button is a breeze. Just find a suitable indoor enclosure and mount the button on it. If you want the button to light up, connect the optional LED. You can power the LED up to 12V because it has a built - in resistor. When you press the button, it'll activate the microswitch. Remember, this button isn't waterproof or weatherproof, so keep it away from water and bad weather. To maintain it, just use a dry cloth to wipe the plastic cover and the retaining ring occasionally. If the LED stops working, check the connection first and then the power supply.
