Micro-Leaf Switches

<< < (3/3)

bkenobi:
Oh wow!  I didn't realize these are basically an off the shelf switch with an added plastic bracket/adapter.  Those pictures make it much more clear.  On the up side, if the switch breaks for whatever reason, you can replace it with another switch from Mouser or Digi-Key.  I wonder if they make a similar sized switch with 0.187 contacts?  I suppose it doesn't matter as long as the QD doesn't fall off.

D_Harris:
So basically it comes down to maintenance. The Micro-Leafs would only be worth it if they are more durable than regular leaf switches.(Someone would need to scientifically compare the response time(spring-back) of these to conventional leaf switches to see if they can be just as effective when used to play a game like Track & Field).

BTW. Would this be similar?
