CMOS Jumper for BH7

I want a pack of these. This is the coolest invention, ever. Anyone know where I could get some? This would make my job easier when I'm under my desk on my back with a flashlight and terrible lighting :) I have one of those jumper tools but this looks way cooler.

You can make one yourself with the existing jumper. All you need is a labelmate or similar and attach it to the jumper.

Why not just use a 2 pin cable or part of a cd audio cable and attach a momentary contact switch to the needed wires. You can mount a cmos reset button on the front of your computer. Hrm, come to think of it, you might need a dpdt switch.

Agreed just take some normal jumpers and cut heat shrink tubing of the appropriate diameter to twice the length of the jumper then insert the jumper into the tube (past the little indentation on the jumper) and heat it up (make sure the tubing shrinks into the little indentation).

why would u need one?
Just to make life easier.

I remember some ASUS boards (A7V133) that had only solder pads on the board where the CLEAR CMOS pins should have been! What a major PITA if you had to clear the CMOS! :|

But it's a 15 pack! I wonder if the microcenter near me has them..... Wahoo, they do in store pickup with no shipping. If you want, I can pick a pack up and drop em in an envelope. They also have a store in Cambridge MA.
