Happ pushbuttons with vertical microswitch?

[Freppz]

Hi,

When i built my first cabinet back in the 2000:s, I bought controls directly from HAPP in the US (I'm in Sweden). I can't exactly remember what they where called, but I think it was something along the lines of "Happ competition pushbutton".

They looked like the standard Happ/Suzo concave pushbuttons availible today, but the microswitch was mounted vertically in the button. I would like to get my hands on a few more buttons of the same kind but can't seem to find them anywhere. Have they simply gone out of production? I really liked them for two reasons: You could replace them without taking the microswitch off and they had a more responsive "click" (according to me anyway).

Does anyone remember these button? Is there anywhere to get a hold on a few of them?

Kind regards

Those are "Suzo Happ Ultimate Pushbuttons" -- not sure if IL ever made them or what name they might have called them. (IL joysticks have different names than the Happ version of the same stick.)

There are several sites that carry them, but the two I looked at were pretty expensive. (Amazon and GameRoomGuys)

Not sure if there are any vendors on your side of the pond that carry them.

You might try contacting Twisted Coin to see if they have any in inventory.
