Homebrew PC Self-Destruct Switch

By

Reading time 1 minute

Self-destruct buttons (especially the deluxe models) have been part of geekgeist at least since Battle Damage He-Man. The self-styled ‘Kaizo Aho Ichidai’ (roughly, the ‘Modding Nutter Unit’) has built himself this very nice-looking version that fits cleanly inside a 5-inch PC bay and even works as an on/off switch. Even more attractive, though, are the thick metal toggle switches. Someone needs to build a panel that sits in the front of a PC with about 10 switches in series, each one lighting up a different LED from red to yellow to green, with the last switch actually powering the machine on. Then I would buy it, with money.
