New Product: Micro-Leaf™ Arcade Pushbutton Switches - GroovyGameGear

All I can say is that I tried one of the "leaf switches that fit on microswitch button" on my Centipede and that I replaced it with a micro-leaf after I had done a LOT of tweaking to get the leaf less "tight" feeling, which failed....

That says a lot because I am a leaf-lover.

The best leaf I have so far is the 27 year old one on my Galaxian. Silky sweet.

But the Micro-Leaf is without a doubt the best solution when you want (have to) use a MS-button.

I really liked the leaf on a micro switch button deals but I'd like to give these a try too.

Really need something for my t-sticks though.

In a thread Randy started?  (You are kidding, right?)

Saw that, I may have to give it a shot.

Although this thread is now old, just thought i might mention i have just received a bag of these switches which are destined for my new control panel. (current panel has Cherry micro switches   ...have heard as much clicking as i can take !)

Have just fitted one to a standard Happs button and fitted into panel.  Would just like to say THANK YOU to the guy that bothered to source these / mate them with microswitch pushbuttons. Much, much quieter. No click noise at all compared to the cherry microswitch's I've been using. Have also noted a much smoother / lighter button press, without any of the resistance i get from the cherrys.

got exactly what I expected after reading the description in the advert for them on the groovygamegear website:

http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=73&products_id=309

I had considered the leaf switch conversion for the happs microswitch buttons which are available here :

http://www.arcadeshop.de/Button-Parts-Leaf--vs-Microswitch_566.html

I will probably try them at a later date, and see how they feel, but for now they lost out on the grounds that they would probably take lots of fiddling with / adjusting.
