New kind of tact switch?

[myname2]

Ive been googling all over, and this is the closest thing I can find. apparently the EPO-Houston website is down..

Id like some of them too, if you could pick some up and send them.. or if anyone can find these on the net.

Yeah, their website is down, great store though. They don't do online ordering anyway. The buttons are 75 cents each, a little pricy. Also remember they are SMT, but they are easy to wire, I mean I did it, and that's saying something. I might be able to pick you guys up some tomorrow when I go back to the store. Just add an extra $5 to whatever it comes out to (handling fee). I only do paypal though, PM me.

And yes the buttons are actually exactly like the ones in a controller, what with the analog rubber squishy things that always scatter everywhere when you bust open a controller. I know this because I accidentally broke one button in half and it had one inside. Oops.

Those just have a conductor so you will short the button signal out with ground when it goes down. Really a simple concept there. and yea, about to pm you with info.....
