WICO vs HAPP
« on: July 17, 2003, 05:11:15 pm »
I saw the posting that Wico buttons were on sale. Yes they are, anyone have a word on how they compare to Happ buttons?

I'd like to know in terms of their softness, shape and mounting depth since I like the happ long buttons.

Thanks in advance.

See reply #27 in this thread for some comparison photos and comments:

In brief, the Wico buttons are nice and have a deeper dish, but I find it absolutely necessary to change out the m'switches on them.

Yeah, I've gotten Wico buttons with both Zippy and Omron microswitches which are ok for credit or player 1/2 buttons but for gameplay buttons they just feel cheap compared to Cherries.

 ;DIn the global terms, Happ rules! ;D

I've saw many people on other forums, complaining about Wicco services!  :-\
