I know that we can obtain sub-mini SPDT and sub-mini DPDT (they're used in at least the 1590G builds here), but is there a sub-mini 3PDT anywhere?

I haven't seen a "Sub" mini 3PDT switch. Lawrence at BLMS has theses.



They are a little smaller than the regular 3PDT switches. They DON'T fit in the wiring boards so you will have to direct wire right to the switch. Here is a link

My mistake.  I should have been more specific.  I meant toggles.

This is pretty close to what I was thinking.  I'd have to see one in real life to have a better idea.

It would be nice if they provided a data sheet so you could see dimensions and pin spacing.

Something seems off. I don`t claim to be an expert, but usually when I look at a picture of an actual sub-mini switch even without a scale something about the proportions screams to me ``Im a sub-mini switch``. This one doesnt. Also, 6mm mounting hole.

Wait, click view more images and go to page 2. It hasll the dimensions. Definitely not sub-mini.

It didn't set right with me either; thanks for doing the leg work.

I can live with a DPDT; it just means no LED. :(

.492" mounting hole size makes that a huge lever with a small body.

FWIW, I gave up on this.  I just decided to use sub-mini DPDTs.

Maybe someday we'll find something...
