    Re: Knobs! (N1 and Speed Ref ;)

    My apologies Stef, you are right the info is in the manual. I must have had a corrupt file as I couldn't see that info in mine. Just re-downloaded and all is good.

    Thanks again.

    Now to find a UK supplier...

    no problem

    farnell, digi-key, mouser all have the alps ec11 in stock. havent checked for the others alps encoders.

    Some of the bourns are in stock too.

    Farnell ships single units and i believe they are in the UK also.

    Nice one Stef. Yes Farnell are in the uk and ship single units. They have the EC-11 here:

    http://uk.farnell.com/alps/ec11b1524...1mm/dp/1191733

    Unfortunately they do not have the 45 deg switches. Only 30 deg switches like these:

    Do you have any suggestions for a supplier in the UK? I could always get a couple from you guys if you still sell them?

    If you guys are interested I've already got some of Dave's knobs, they're very nice too. You can buy them plain or painted as shown here.

    I've attached a few pics to give you some idea of the range.

    Cheers
    Joe.

    Hi Spiro, unfortunately I can't help you directly, but it may be worth checking out his thread as the guys there might be able to offer some help:

    Still no joy finding a UK supplier for the 45 deg switch. DigiKey have them, but I don't think they ship to the UK?
