I have some EI buttons and the twang was annoying me as well, so I did what randy suggested and stretched the spring (I've only done it on one though) and it pretty much eliminates the twang and makes the button feel more "natural" if that makes sense. |

I heard these buttons were updated since the original release, was this problem address at that time? Maybe different springs or something? |

They "twang" in exactly the same way. Because the standard material (Nylon) is softer and less resonant than the IL Translucents (Polycarbonate) or the special material used in the EI buttons, you just can't hear it as well. Extending the spring creates more tension on the button, which will deaden that sound, but it also adds a bit of extra resistance that some, who are used to the standard HAPP buttons could find objectionable. It's simple to make a spring longer, but more difficult to shorten it, so they are left mimicking the original HAPP variety when shipped. RandyT |

I think when I get mine I am just going to leave well enough alone. |

Just my 2 cents. I have Electric Ice buttons in damn near every cabinet I have. I love em. Even without the LED-Wiz the colors are easily hardwired and run offa 5v. I need to outfit 3 more of my cabs when I get the money. Randy do you have any lighted joysticks? I prefer perfect 360's but I only have lighted Supers atm. :hissy: |
