    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

DIY Lamp Switch

freefall

New member
Hi, i'm wondering what those of you who have DIY'd your own lamps have used for switches.  I have bought (but not yet tested) a piezo switch.  I'm not yet sure how it will work with the maxflex board I have, or how it will work in a cave environment (ie mud and water). In theory getting it caked in mud shouldn't be an issue, but running water "hitting" the pressure switch may trigger it??

What have others used? It needs to be waterproof (IP68+?) so that it can handle small sumps, but ideally i'd like it more waterproof so that it would be dived on.

Has anyone used/seen where to buy (for cheaps..) wireless switches perhaps? (not reed switches as they're magnetic..)

Any other ideas?
