Push button purchases
« on: September 06, 2012, 02:32:39 pm »
Here is a pretty simple question.

When you purchase Push buttons, do they come with micro switches, or are those extra?

I've salvaged a bunch of micro switches from my work and I'm just wondering if there is any point to collecting them, if I'm just going to get more when I get pushbuttons.

I've just started looking into a build so I haven't even got to the point where I've decided what type of pushbuttons I'll be getting.

Thanks!!

Depends on who you order from, really.

Yep, it does..

Some come with microswitches, some dont..best bet is to email them to find out.

Thanks for the responses. I'll make sure to ask that before I purchase. Until then I'll keep collecting just in case they are useful.
