Any such thing as an electronic Overlocker?

Hello all, 

Does anyone have/or seen an electronic Overlocker that doesn't require a foot pedal for operation? I think I'm wishful thinking....

I don't know if it has an on/off button, but there is a computerised overlocker. I haven't tried it so don't have a recommendation but I spotted it here

Thanks for your message. I had a look at it still uses a foot pedal. It is very snazzy though 😊 I don't think one exists... I wonder why not...

That's interesting... when I use the start/stop button on my machine I find my reflexes aren't as quick - because my hands are busy holding the fabric so the time it takes to move my hand to the right button is a lot slower than lifting my foot... maybe that's why!
