Struggling to find certain LED buttons
« on: September 18, 2018, 03:40:25 am »
Hi,

I'm looking for the following type of button and I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction:

* Must be Japanese Sanwa/Seimitsu convex style 30mm buttons. Can be another brand, but must be decent quality.
* Black plunger and red plungers.
* Screw in only as it's going through plywood.
* Clear ring for LED lights.

If anyone can help me, I'd be stoked, thanks!

You might want to consider combining red/black buttons with clear ones. So use the plunger of the colored ones and the rest of the clear/led ones.

These are great buttons - I have them on my CP.
Problem is that Paradise Arcade runs out of them frequently - so when you get them - get a few extras.  If you call them - they will give you an idea of when they will be back in stock.
With the RGB LEDs they really look nice without being overpowering.

After that - I think you will have to buy 2 of each button and make your own..
