Happ to stop using Cherry switches

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.

I will look into keeping some of these on hand. We should also have another option for convex buttons soon as well.

Thanks. I'll be ordering from you again soon once I start my new build, and I want to order all of my stuff from the same place. You guys were really good to me last time I ordered so expect more business from me.
Oh yeah, speaking of happs and new parts, is the new black acuator happs uses now still sometimes randomly different? I have a black one and a white one installed in my cab and I can't tell a difference. But I have another black one that's pretty horrible. Just curious about this, I know you were in touch with happs about it at one point I think.

[quote author=MonMotha link=topic=93809.msg988366#msg988366 Within a week or two, two out of the 10 switches had failed. They'd "stick" - that is, they'd hold for a period of time after you released them, often making and breaking contact rapidly during that "sticking" time. It's not hard to debounce a switch (though one could argue all day as to preferred methods of doing it), but it's basically impossible to deal with behavior like that.

I cant explain this at all. A rough calculation shows we have sold around 43,000 of these switches, mostly on J-Stik joysticks (Sanwa UM-8), and not one report of failure until the ones you mention here. Will remain one of lifes great mysteries I suppose...

it is truee is blamee mini spring on micro, but meny micro unused spring: KWJ and FREEPORT.IL. They act longer, and has same push and sound
