Smallest arcade buttons?

(1/3) > >>

LeedsFan:
What are the smallest arcade quality buttons generally available? I'm looking for some buttons that take up less CP space than standard Happs etc. as I'm building a bartop. The smallest I've found are the Sanwa OBSF 24. Is this it? Of course they must be arcade quality.... I'm not just gonna install any old buttons just because they fit.  ;)

What about the old atari volcano buttons?

Those aren't good for general gameplay. That's why I didn't recommend the Sanwa 18s or 20s. I think the 24 is about as good as you're going to get and still maintain arcade feel.

TOK:
I bought a couple of these for admin buttons. They have a great feel and they are certainly small (maybe too small for your use) but there are a couple of issues.

They're only about an inch long, so if you're going to use 3/4" or larger for the panel its gonna require some extra routing. The second thing is that I think they're only available in black.

Oh, there might be an issue since you're not in the US. Not sure though.
