Thanks. I have them as well.
They still take more force than my 20g ones, though.   :hissy:

paigeoliver:

Have you actually used standard cherry switches? I have no idea how many grams of actuation force they need. I just know that they are easier to click than any of the other brands I have ever tried.

If you need easier than that then you probably need to move to leaf switches.

mgb:

I believe the original cherry switches that came in happ buttons and what not are something like 75 grams. I read that somewhere.

I find the soft switches from GGG and Paradise Arcade to be pretty silent even with my metal cp.
I have them in my player 2 stick and buttons and I have cherries in my player 1 stick.

I agree with above, maybe you'd be best going leaf switch.

I think the Cherry ones I have take about 45g to activate.
And the joystick I use doesn't take leaf switches.

U could remove the spring from the pushbutton. That makes less resistance and might give u the feel ur looking for.
