About

The Big Red in brief

Big Red is a large-target wired accessibility switch designed for users who benefit from a generous activation area. Its 5-inch / 12.7-cm surface requires 5.5 oz / 156 g of force and provides both tactile and auditory feedback when pressed. The switch includes interchangeable red, blue, yellow and green tops plus a clear snap-on symbol holder, making it easy to adapt for visual preference, contrast or activity-specific symbols. It can be connected to compatible switch-accessible devices through a standard wired switch interface.
