Yeah. It's not like it's a broken Nintendo joystick.

"A microswitch without a lever has a smaller activation distance than one with a lever."

 You dont understand the concepts Patrick.

 First off, the Mini Micros that Randy uses has the activator button very close to the
level pivot point.   This give an almost immidiate activation. 

 Also, a happ button has a long travel distance before it stops...  while a mini mirco
activation button has a much shorter travel.    Thus, If you put a mini micro (no lever)
directly under the button -  the button will smash very heavily into the switch and
eventually destroy it.    As the switch body is not meant to be impacted... and that
is what will happen - unless you changes the happ button so that it limited its
travel depth. 

 The micro lever allows near instant activation,  yet,  afterwards  - is free to
travel further.   This allows the happs button to travel the full distance down
without crashing into the micro.     Its a brilliant discovery actually.

 No, its not as good as a true leaf IMOP...  but it may be a step above
a typical micro.   

 It certainly activates faster than a larger micro - as Ive verified that personally.

--- Quote from: vitaflo ---Wow, looks like it's time to change out all 14 switches in my cab.  I can't stand the "CLICK CLICK CLICK" of the Cherry switches.   Here's hoping you make some joystick switches too, I'd buy those as well.

Cherry has different types of microswitches, these with blue plunger have small click.
If you don't want any click go for japanese buttons and problem solved.

You say that name not mislead people. When I saw name of topic I say: Jisus new excellent leaf switches. I thought it until I read kowal's posts.

Perhaps the word "some" isn't translating properly.
