Monoprice Select Mini V2 Replacement Power Switch Holder

thingiverse

The Monoprice Select Mini V2 printer boasts impressive features, marred only by a flimsy power switch prone to failure. Two of my printers suffered premature demise due to this same issue. This handy replacement switch holder is designed to resolve the problem. The Twidec Self-Locking Latching Push Button Switch (available on Amazon) serves as the replacement part for this holder: https://www.amazon.com/Twidec-Self-Locking-Latching-Position-L-DS-427-3C-101/dp/B07Q85G7GV/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=Twidec%2FEach+5+12mm+SPST+Self-Locking+Latching+Push+Button&qid=1588204946&s=industrial&sr=1-6 The main switch holder body fits snugly into the original switch hole in the printer's metal casing. The new switch is threaded through a corresponding hole in the holder, secured by a provided washer and nut. A simple clamp, designed to be easily installed from within the printer, secures the switch firmly in place. Although the fit may appear slightly loose, it remains highly functional and intended as a straightforward solution rather than an aesthetically pleasing one. Bear in mind that connecting the new switch electrically may require soldering or other modifications to your existing wiring setup.
