| Bent microswitches a normal thing? |
| (1/1) |
| Ldsfunaz:
I just received my joysticks and when I opened the box I noticed that some of the metal connections on the microswitches are bent, around 30 degrees off center. Is this normal shipping damage, and is this fixable, or should i ask whom i ordered them from for extra microswitches or some other resolution? thanks for the info. mike |

sounds like no big deal. |

unless they are cracked/broke you'll be fine. Last time I got some Supers in the mail, a few micros were a bit bent.. just carefully bend them back and you'll be good to go. You can keep them bent as well, it won't harm anything. |

It happens. Just don't bend them back unless you really need to. To do so really weakens the tab and next thing you know, they break off. |
| ShinAce:
The last time I ordered parts, I found that all 4 of my joysticks had bent leads. Now I wonder why they just don't ship the switches loose instead of attached to the base. |
