I can blow a few holes in the washers I do tonight and see how they do… I think Susan sent all the samples out today, and we are cutting stock for the store this evening.
Sweet! I’d love to see how they turn out!
I saw some prices, but wasn’t sure if you made the final decision yet.
hey armi0024, got a question. are these switches “easy to pry open”? http://www.paradisearcadeshop.com/en/microswitches/239-seimitsu-ls-32-zippyy-joystick-upgrade-kit-0855742002399.html
thing is, I wanna try them on LS-56/58 which uses shorter levers, I have the short levers, so im basically gonna transplant them to these zippys linked above, but it looks like its bolted down… just wondering, (in anycase, im getting them for my ls-32’s nonetheless)
thanks
Sorry for the bad cell phone camera picture, but I thought everyone might enjoy these. We are going to charge a little extra for the LED version, it’s little more expensive to produce.

We just heard back from our vendor… we are going to have an AWESOME ball top available in a few weeks…
Ooohhh! Very nice! Will it affect the silencing in any way since more than half the washer is cut out?
It’s all about the edge of the ring
Oooh, oooh, oooh!
Clues about the balltop? Color, the material it’s made out of??? Does it look like anything we’ve seen before – perhaps a re-release of a long desired re-release??? Or is it something nobody’s seen before???
I have never seen these before we have two different ball tops being done.
One is something you have to get from Hawaii…
I could sound a little upset but I’m not at all… just want to know when are you going to update the page…?
You have big plans trying to bring us top quality components and I’m thankful for that big effort that you and your wife (?) are doing, but I think you should update your page with at least one picture per item.
Also, I’ve been waiting to know/see/hear any news in regards of when are the new and shinny anodized ball tops going to be available?
Thanks for checking the site out.
We are in the process of revamping the entire site, should be done within two weeks, and we are hoping when we migrate, we will be updating all the pictures. When we migrated to a new server last fall we lost some pictures. Because there are over 700 items in the store it took a while to pick some of those up. Keep you eyes on the site, change is coming 
We received the balls and bats in, but the finish doesn’t match the shaft covers and washers so we have been talking this over with the company before releasing them.
Glass balltop filled with poi!?! 
Any chance you might stock a few of the suzo-happ jumbo illuminated pushbuttons (for divekick controllers)? They have minimum order requirements on their website.
After spending more time on the LS-56 3 lb spring, I have to say, this is my favorite spring. I can highly recommend anyone looking to add a bit more snappiness to your LS-56 to pick this spring up. I very much prefer it over the stock spring. People would be doing themselves a disservice not to at least try them out.
Thank you Bryan! I’ve been waiting months for it, and it was worth it.
Time to go silent!

I couldn’t hear you. what did you say?
Ok so I finally had a chance to test the 2nd set of silent pads. Theres a thick and a thin one again and I put them in side by side with the original ones.
To be honest, I notice no difference to sound when comparing skinny v1 to skinny v2 or thick v1 to thick v2.
When comparing activation, again, no noticable difference between skinny v1 or skinny v2 but when comparing thick v1 against v2 I did notice a slight difference. Thick v2 activated slightly earlier than v1.
If I was to pick it would still be skinny ones but have no preference between v1 or v2. Thick v2 is better than v1 but still requires a tad more force so good for those that hit buttons hard.
Thanks again for giving me the opportunity to test these
Unrelated, Anyone know if theres a guide to installing the silent jlf switch mod?
We have some one working on a movie to show the mods, it is incredibly easy though. I have no idea why this didn’t post last night, but silent washers are now available!!!
