+1 for solder. The better overall way to connect a wire to a micro switch in my opinion. Sent from my Desire HD |

For the record, I think I will just stick with QD since I have a ton of those around. |

My bad, I interpreted your comment as meaning "I'm dead set on soldering now, as opposed to QD", ie. you had picked soldering as the way to go. I guess you were just saying "I've got enough info and will mull it over, thanks...." |

Sounds perfect but haven't heard much from anyone about it. ??? --- End quote --- As part of my research before placing a bulk order, I ordered one of each of GGG's microswitches: Standard Soft Touch, Premium Groovy-Micro Soft-Touch, Versa-Micro, and Micro-Leaf I set up a test panel with all 4 side by side to test them with GGG's Arcade Prime buttons. They were all great but I didn't notice any improvement over the Standard Soft Touch, but then I'm not a microswitch and button technique connoisseur. The price difference sealed the deal for me. YMMV. Your best bet is probably to set up your own test panel and try all of them. Wire the switches in parallel and play a 1 button game like Galaga w. fast shoot hack. (galagamf) Scott |
