Says so in their dimensional drawings.<p>http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/E-Switch/EG1218/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtHXLepoqNyVZDOWY7elTCOE4MJ3sXRkSs%3d</p></p>

They do keep all of their libraries in a Github repository: <a href="https://github.com/SparkFun/SparkFun-Eagle-Libraries" rel="nofollow">github.com/SparkFun/SparkFun-Eagle-Libraries</a><br>
You could add product IDs to the libraries and issue a pull request. Though my earlier mistake shows why that would require careful scrutiny as well.</p>

It helps quite alot but it would be a lot nicer if Sparkfun included more product ids on their library. I know they are definitely trying and if there's anyway I could help I definitely would.</p>

Perhaps it was incorrect 3 years ago though :) )</p></p>

This is literally the only size that will fit in my project, which runs 5v @ 2-3A (Spiky from led-strips). lol Ill make sure to tell you how it goes, but I did find an old tiny switch just like this that couldn't of had a higher rating and it worked fine. Absolutely no problems. Though this wouldn't work for a constant high amperage</p>

This is not a resistor which is <em>dropping</em> 9V or 30V, it's a switch which must be able to block 30V of DC when off (which is tiny BTW), not destructively arc when used as an interrupt, and not melt due to power dissipation when on.<p>With specs this tiny on a physical switch, you might never see a failure operating at 9V/600mA, but, as a general rule with switches, the voltage rating is independent of the current rating.</p></p>

Could this be used with 9v at ~600 mA? I'm building a personal fan prototype with my mini breadboard (stuck to a foam block from the maglev train kit me and my friend used for NY SciOly xD) and I need either this or the other one here...</p>
