These are great but caution to those that arent electonic guru's if you decide to power these without any circuitry to protect them from overvoltage at least install a diode on your power input. i fired my entire panel due to sending 12volts from my PSU instead of the 3Volts i used for testing. My UFC was completely lit with no issues at 3V.
product looks fantastic and high quality. It would be nice to supply the the purchaser a list of possible hardware choices to choose form ie buttons and more specifically the kory master caution button. I can also concur that a paper schematic or a downloadable version would be great for mock up and preparation for the units arrival.
The panel is of a high quality, no manufacturing defects found.
However, there is one design flaw: round buttons. If I would engineer those buttons, I would make them visually round, but I would add some curve to the back of the button and reflected curvature to the button housing. This would prevent button from turning clockwise or opposite direction. This applies to all of your panels. (a lot of round buttons on my CDU).
Also, guys, please, listen to your customer cries :)
I am not asking for 3D schematics, I don't want to create panels myself and be your competitor. But guys, why (!?) don't you provide 2D schematics of your panels? I want to be able to plan my PCB with buttons ahead of purchase. And even when I already has your panels in my hands, do you suggest I should measure them with a ruler?

Great design, wish the hole was bigger for the potentiometer/rheostat. I didn't measure, but looks close to 3/16 or 4mm. You can tell it's custom made but, that gives it a warm charm.
Great panel. The black paint job is smooth and seems durable, the etching/CNC scribe of the text and designs is very neat and sharp. I Recommend this panel!
Panel is fantastic. Just suggest maybe an option to have regular .5 inch holes drilled for Flood and APU top holes for the fitting of the locking toggle switches. Other then that, no issues, get this panel!
