The switches might be a bit different, but not noticeable during gameplay if they are placed side by side in the same cab. --- End quote --- Ultimarc now use Cherry microswitches, which I'm pretty sure Happ also use. I think U'marc used to use Honeywell microswitches, which I like (I also like the Cherry's), but the two have quite a different feel. |

Unless something has changed lately, Ultimarc switches require .25" female quick disconnects, while Happs require .187" I personally like this because it means the .25" QDs I can get in the autoparts aisle of my local WhateverMart fit perfectly. The .187" ones are a bit trickier to acquire at 2 a.m. |

I just ordered some Ultimarc buttons, and since I've used tons of Happ buttons over the past couple of years I'll be able to see any differences right away. They should be here in a day or two, I'll post back when they arrive. (I hope they are the same since they are going in a machine with some Happ buttons I had kicking around!) |

I seem to remember something like that. --- End quote --- If you're thinking of what I'm thinking of, that was some Chinese? (Taiwanese?) company selling convex buttons. I think it's possible to order directly from them, but they are European only, so it's difficult from the states, and I think they only sell to businesses (so you have to work for your own small arcade company). I think Grasshopper bought from them before, could be wrong, though. |

Seems I was mistaken about the minimum order. http://www.arcadecontrols.org/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=20979;start=0#msg169773 |
