HAPP Cherrys were made in a Mexican "sweatshop" (your word, not mine.) I fail to see a difference.

now Omron make best durability micro
V series have 50.000.000
I think it is best micro on world fell is very good, same clik, good plunger reflection, nice realization. comparable quality have only MicroYamatace
but Omron V have 200g force to engage it is switch only for joystick
for buttons max is 100g, over>100 sux:P
on buttons I use only Chery (KWJ or D42) other good thing is SAIA X3 (something 90g) or Freeport witch grey-white plunger (something 85g), but I still will Cherry.

Definitely a failure in translation. "A <something> whore" in US slang commonly means that one expresses their preference for <something> freely, perhaps too freely. I very much like the Omron V-10G-1C24-K. I've bought like 25 of them just for myself and have bought perhaps 100 for others. It's my preferred microswitch for gaming button applications.
As for the signal coming out of the Sanwas, if it's "clean", that's certainly awesome. However, 20% failure rate after only 2 weeks of home usage is pretty abysmal. I'll take a little bounce (which can easily be cleaned up) over a 20% failure rate any day.
As for ISO9000, I personally think it's something of a sham. It doesn't mean that product quality is good; it just means that the manufacturer knows who to blame when there's a problem
evitagen:
I'm on board with happs over Sanwa as well.
Also, thanks for the information RandyT. I trust you on this issue as you've always really seemed to know what's up. Will be ordering from you again soon!
These new switches don't bother me at all. Oh and do you think you'll supply some convex happs buttons in the future? I made a stick for someone that wanted these and was going to order from you and noticed you didn't have any. I got them elsewhere but I did find that I really liked them.
