The Mech Cat Button Box is a sim racing control panel with 10 illuminated buttons, 3 rotaries with push function, a toggle switch and a START button, with RGB lighting you configure from SimHub.
The front plate and its details are made from laser-cut and laser-engraved acrylic, and the engraving is backlit by an RGB LED strip. From SimHub you can leave a fixed colour or tie the lighting to track flags, spotter warnings or engine revs, so the panel adds information as well as controls to your cockpit.

Frequently asked questions
Does the button box come with a mount?
No. It is sold without a mount and works with The Mech Cat VESA brackets, both the 3-piece articulated one and the 5-piece one, which are bought separately.
Which controls does it have?
10 illuminated square buttons, 3 rotaries with push function, one toggle switch and one illuminated START button.
Can the buttons be labelled?
Yes. Each button has room inside for a custom label, so you can mark radio, wipers, pit lane, limiter or whichever function you assign.
How is the front engraving lit?
By a built-in RGB LED strip controlled from SimHub. You can set a static colour or use dynamic effects such as track flags, spotter warnings or flashing in sync with engine revs.
Does it work with PlayStation or Xbox?
The button box connects over USB to a PC. The lighting relies on SimHub, which only exists for PC, so it is not intended for use with consoles.
