Here is the other lens picture. |

I've been talking to my local rep and I'm looking into a bulk order of the EAO switches from the manufacturer (these will be discontinued in a few months so its now or never). They're sending me some samples so I can compare. They are pricey though, I'm torn between buying these switches (the easy, expensive way) and having reproductions of the Cherry holders made (the tricky, more authentic, maybe even a little more expensive way). |

If you find that the EAO switches feel okay, then no one would ever know from looking at the top of the control panel that they aren't the original switches. I would definitely buy some more of these switches. |

Do you think that they could be used for replacements of existing Cherry volcano buttons? |
| VESUVIUS:
I know the lenses are sold separately but I don't think they will be a direct replacement for the original Atari lenses. I figured that these switches are about to be or already were discontinued because the 11 series switches aren't even featured on the EAO main web page. Even though it's still in the picture of their products. Lets keep the drive alive and save the volcano. |
