Title: New Product: UltraLux Contemporary Illuminated Pushbuttons
Post by: AndyWarne on July 06, 2007, 09:41:17 am

Simply the most attractive arcade pushbuttons ever! Available in chrome finish or two-tone with translucent surround.
Illuminated with LED lamps with integral holder, easily-connected push-on terminals.
More information and pretty pictures on http://www.ultimarc.com/ultralux.html (http://www.ultimarc.com/ultralux.html)
Our PacDrive driver board is now available and already has integral support added to Mala, requiring no plugin (pending new release version). Ideal for these pushbuttons.

I like the all color ones but I am worried that the chrome might scratch and come off the other ones.

Do they come with the 5v LED or do the come separate?

Nice....

Question, though.... is the button surface flat, depressed, or raised?  They look flat from the picture, but thought I'd ask...

Geez, I am going to have to build a new cab now... GGG with his new LED-Wiz+GP and you with some new pushbuttons...  Sigh...

The Chrome ones would be perfect for a juke box.

The button surface is slightly convex like most pushbuttons used on modern cabinets.
I have been trying to get some decent pictures of them illuminated but its not proving to be easy to capture the illumination especially the way in which the surrounds illuminate on the translucent ones, the picture just flares. Still working on it...
The LEDs are priced separately on the order page.

I'm sure I could help you with some pictures. Just send me some  8)

I said that half joking, but I'd seriously would like to do that. I have some reasonably pro camera and lighting equipment. Easily a lot better than an Olympus C21.

LOVE the chrome ones Andy.  :cheers:

Not a fan of convex buttons for gameplay but I agree they would be perfect for a jukebox, or cabinet admin buttons...any application that requires some bling.

Andy, these look very cool.   8)    I will definitely be considering these for my next cab, and I appreciate that you took on the risk of buying in bulk to make these available in small lots.
