Anyone know of any quiet microswitches for seimitsu LS-32 or Zippyy Joysticks?

[drokkeh]

Hi All

I have a Seimitsu LS-32 and a Zippyy.

I have heard that there are quiet microswitches that you can buy to replace the stock ones.

I hear they are Zippyy 20g leaf microswitches?

Possibly these ones here:

I think GGG sell smoothjoy switches as a joystick option but not  as a separate part.

Can anyone advise on if these are still available anywhere?

Welcome aboard, Drokkeh.   

Send a PM to RandyT -- he's the owner of GGG and a regular here on the forums.

He may be willing to let you order a few sets "off menu".

I've been using the Zippy switches for my Seimitsu LS-58's and they are very quiet. They work with the LS-32 as well, but if you're using the stock round-gate you might need to get a thicker actuator (this is a true for most silent switch mods for Japanese joysticks anyway).

I picked mine up from Paradise arcade, but it looks like their out of stock right now.  http://www.paradisearcadeshop.com/microswitches/239-seimitsu-ls-32-zippyy-joystick-upgrade-kit.html

You should be able to find these switches at other vendors as well since they're pretty common these days.

Just add a note in your order to add the levers, unlike some vendors, Randy will see that and make it so.

Yes we do sell the levered 20 gram switches....and we do have them in stock!

Thanks Susan.  Quantity 1 = 1 upgrade kit (4 microswitches?)

If you're ordering from Susan at Paradise, I would advise you to pick up a couple different actuators they carry. There are a few different thickness levels you can experiment with the switches you get.

Thanks opt2not.  I have ordered the 2 different size actuators so I can get a feel for what works best.

Thanks for all the advice.  Appreciated.
