Help identifing this joystick shaft?
Dekieon:
Hi I purchased a Ms. Pac-man control panel a few years ago from mikesarcade.com, and would like to replace the joystick shaft for one that I can change the ball on.
This is a picture of the shaft...Does anyone know what replaces this?
PL1:
A picture of the base and any markings on it may be helpful.
Length and diameter measurements would also help since it's almost impossible to extrapolate actual sizes from a pic without a known size reference.
+1 if you use a micrometer for the diameter measurement.

Dekieon:
The Diameter of the shaft is 10mm, the length is from the bottom of the ball to the end of the shaft is 89mm.
It has IL written on the bottom of the joystick.
Here are some additional pictures of the joystick in the control panel.
PL1:
That's an IL Compact -- same as a Happ Super.
Since you want to be able to swap the the balltop, GGG has the Versa-Ball 2 series.
If you're looking for some RGB action, Paradise has the "Nui IL/Happ RGB Shaft Kit" without the slip ring here and with the slip ring here.
If you go RGB LED, a slip ring is highly recommended so you don't twist the wires to the breaking point. :hissy:

Have you used one? I have, doesn't really help worth a crap. The best solution I've seen for LED sticks is the audio jack connector.
