Greetings,
This is an easy one. Does anyone have any recommendations on where to source (at a reasonable price) a mushroom style, E-stop switch with two sets of normally closed contacts to use with my Acorn/Gecko (drive only) set up? Ebay has plenty of E-stop switches, but most have one each of NO & NC contacts.
Thanks in advance.

Another option is to take two of the estops that have one NC and one NO circuit and convert them into an estop with two NC circuits. I have been using estops like this for a while and have had no problems. See the attached links for information on doing this. Its pretty simple to do.

I use these: https://www.ebay.com/itm/DECA-A20B-V4E0 ... SwgQ9Vy-SJ They come with one NC switch unit but will accept up to 2 more switches, NC or NO. Additional switches are available separately and just snap in.
