No, not even a part number so you could find a datasheet for it.

Haha, oh yes, 20 UKP (~35USD) minimum order (and a 3UKP 'handling' charge)!

RS components are trade only (although I could probably get round that),
but again I suspect they have a stupid minimum order amount.

I *really* would like to find one, Maplin used to be quite good but have
gone too mainstream and now don't stock half the components they used to.
Farnell have too stupid a minumum order and RS (and all the others I've
found 
are trade only)

OTOH is there anywhere recommended that would deliver to Florida[1] for
reasonable prices?
