Title: 12volt LED power switch on foreplay III
Post by: ET on November 11, 2016, 08:32:15 AM

i have a push button LED lit switch for my foreplay III i am trying to wire in.  I am just now seeing that there is probably not anywhere on this chassis that is running 12 volts. 
Am i missing somewhere? 
Can i hook this to the 6v heaters and simply get less light out of the LED?
If i can hook up to the heaters, the LED basically has a power in and out, do i run from pin 4 or 5 on a 12AU7 and then out the LED back to pin 9 on the 12AU7?
Getting pretty close to firing this up!, thanks for your time and knowledge.
Tim

Yes, there is no source for 12V DC.  Yes, there is a source for 6.3V DC.

We can't offer any additional help without having a part number and/or a link to the datasheet for your particular switch.
