Leaf style Pushbuttons and their differences
Malenko:
if "microswitch setup" is only referencing the barrel length, its not the same thing.

Agreed. i paired a couple with a GGG leaf stick on my PacMan build and it made a world of difference.
...did i just read a whole post by X2? ...and also somewhat agree with him?
..no. Not possible. its late, I'm short on sleep, X2's real posts are longer than a copy of War and Peace, and this is all a nightmare.

Of course. I know these products inside and out. In fact, I was sent a sample.. which was very kind... but didnt change my opinion.
*DO YOU HAVE A REAL LEAFSWITCH ARCADE BUTTON? JUST ASKING...
These varients could be used for fighting games, unlike real leafs, which are more suited to rapidfire & classics.
Double the travel, allows a much greater range of actions, without having to bottom out (smash into the bottom of the button limit / base).
It allows about a cushion to be able to rest on them without fear of fire.... then a mid-area where rapidfire bounce can occur (of which you are not forced to leave this section... easily bouncing without incurring large travel loss & additional spring tension) and finally, if you press further... you start ramping up the springboard energy.. which helps slow you down from the possibility of hitting the bottom.. as well as to help speed you back up when the energy is redirected back up.
Again, like a diving board. Do you want to use a diving board that keeps smashing into the pavement with even light jumping? or one that ... if you jump too heavily, will still unlikely hit the ground?
In Groovys version, I was accidentally causing the switch to activate with the smallest pressure of setting my fingers on it lightly. This isnt optimal for me at all. As I dont want to have to hold all of my digits up in the air that entire time Im playing. And if I press it down, even lightly, it always bottoms out. Theres not enough spring tension nor travel to stop this.
Since you THINK you know it all... go and prove it to yourself. Grab a real old skool leaf.... mount and adjust it, and fire up some Galaga and Asteroids Deluxe.
Or keep spouting a bunch of USELESS CRAP, trying to look cool, like some childish 4th grader.
Grown-ups are speaking. Please go and sit at the Kiddie table over in the corner. Thanks
