Tactile switches are small and are usually mounted on a board.... in this case a remote control type board. I want to pick up a foot movement that activates a micro switch on a pedal board. I am using Cat5 type cabling on the micro switch circuit. I want to send a signal from the pedal board/micro switch movement to a small pull type solenoid to activate a drumstick to hit a drum. (as in a musical drum kit). This will be through a relay and powered by 12v supply. I can find relay infra red enabled boards with 8 relays fitted that are activated by 8 tactile buttons on the remote transmitter. Could I successfully take the top off the tactile switches and solder in the cables from the micro switch?
