already seen on FB ;)
did you get any more informations about it in the mean while? :)
Now this is a thread that is JUST PERFECT for fighting street!!!
Regardless, very cool find. Are you the same guy that posted these on the FB group? You found them at a thrift store and gave in to peer pressure with all the chummers yell'n at you for not picking them up initially? LOL
Its a master power switch with remove switch control. Kinda boring if you ask me.
I don't do FaceBook. WTF is that thing in the image. Is it for real, or a gag? I'm serious. My bat senses are failing me! :pcgs:
Interesting.
Does it go with the Jaguar Dental Imaging Equipment?

Its a master power switch. popular back in the 80's, you plugged all your components into the switchboard and this was the remote that sat on your desk to turn all your components on. I remember seeing one in our store room 13 years ago right before it went in the dumpster.
I love this thread. I never knew that designs so seemingly unique (TurboPad, Jaguar) were recycled for other purposes.
Sure, I'd expect recycling of generic-looking designs...
...next you'll be telling me there is a MegaDrive answering machine out there!

Ha ha, thought you'd like it. I actually found out directly from a company rep here in the SF Bay Area who was a gamer. He said they bought the molds directly from Atari and just repurposed them for the dental products.
