Microswitch button is very hard!
« on: September 25, 2013, 06:59:38 am »
Hi!
I have a set with 2 joysticks and 14 buttons (6+P1/6+P2) which I bought from Ultracabs. The main reason I bought this set a couple of years ago was because they were backlit, and I thought it could be cool for a multi system machine, where it could activate the different LEDs for different consoles etc.

Not so sure now what I feel about LEDs on a cab but...

Anyways: The buttons are REALLY hard, the HAPP buttons feel like leaf buttons compared! So I think I will have to replace all the microswitches. Is there any brand you would recommend? I was actually thinking of just buying a bunch of HAPP buttons, and move them over, as it's almost the same cost...
