Evening all, I've been looking for a certain style M-ATX case for a while but couldn't get what I wanted, until I came across the Phobya M -ATX Watercase Black Edition, but it was around the £100 mark and for what it is, what a rip off, that was until I went over to Aquatuning, and it is only £52, bargain, the thing is the switches for power/reset, are sold separately, but they don't state what size they are, 16mm or 19mm does anyone have any idea on this. Cheers guys.

they are the 19mm ones mate, on the bottom of the description are atleast 19mm ones recommended
 
I can't believe I missed that about 4 times, blonde moment, cheers buddy.

That looks like it is for the fill ports, or rear tube access. " All rubberized openings for hoses or cables allow removal of the protective rubber frame to allow installation of Fillports compatible with 19mm holes. " "Hole loop-thourgh holes / Fillport mounting holes: 2x Rear, 1x top (19mm each) "

Are those links working for you then ? Every time I click the black or silver option, it is taking me to the German AT home page, that's odd. I just tried again, in case it was a dodgy link, but I got the welcome page again. What browser are you using, I'm on Chrome ?

Cheers buddy.

I'm getting the same in Firefox too, strange.

It works for me probably because I live in germany and I get redirected to the german site to but also with the product, then I just searched the switch on the UK site for you ;)
 
I have recently purchased those 6pins push button switches. Havent managed to try them yet but I also purchased the phobya cables to go with them since they were cheap.

Certainly tidies (spelling?) the looks.

But since im still building my pc desk, I havent tested them yet and so im a little "nervous" if I have even bought the correct ones to use for a start and reset functions :S
 
As far as I'm aware, there are 2 types of switch, 1 is momentary, and the 2nd one escapes me at the moment. But you basically need one of each, that is the problem I'm having from where I'm going to order mine, they don't state which ones they are, but, at a guess, in my size and colour, they only do 2, so I'm going to get them both, it has to be right. And when it come to connecting them, if the one for power doesn't stay on, that will be the one for reset.

If where you got them from sell 3 types, then you might have a problem. But as far as I now there are only 2 kinds, maybe someone, will come along who knows more tham me, and we will both find out.
 
the switches I linked above can be used for reset aswell as power on/off.
You just need to wire them up correctly

Hmm this worries me, as I bought 2 of the same type. I "think" both of these are momentary

Phobya 6pin 19mm

This is the one that I purchased for both start and also reset.

it will work, no worries, did use these switches before, for power aswell reset, both were the same as you bought

thanks for that confidence boost. As I said, I also picked up the cables for convenience. I too was skeptical if I got the right ones.

My desk can proceed ahead ;)
 
Cheers TPC I didn't no that, Although it did enter my mind when I first looked at them as they all have 5 terminals, but on another forum they always say "make sure you get the right anti vandal switches for what you need " Is it only the Phobya or are they all multi use ?
