I have 2 Saberforge lighted AV switches (red segmented and purple segmented). I can't find the specs anywhere online - does anyone know the forward voltage of these and their maximum current?

Thanks!

Red is 2v and 20mah
Purple is 3v and 20mah

Dyna ohm works perfectly on both.

I don't think this is true. Using a dynaohm and a battery pack providing 3-12v, the switch is only drawing a max of about 5mA. Its also significantly dimmer at 3/4.5 V than at 6-12V.

I know the TCSS switches are 2/3V and 20mA, I have some of those that using the same setup clearly show 20mA. But from the tests I've done it seems like the Saberforge ones have an internal resistor.

I'd love to know specs and resistor requirements for these also.
I have Purple and Amber segmented's I want to use in a small build. Not using a SF board (Plector Pico Crumble) so would be removing the plug and play connector and soldering directly to the board.
Be nice to know what resistor is needed.

Be nice if SF privided a few more details of their products - sizes, current/voltage, any of that stuff...

Run a dyna ohm on them and you will be fine.

As Jas-Ot says run a dyna ohm, and your set
