The industrial type 3PDT switch fits with not much effort on standard 3PDT daughter boards! 8)

For the space saving it offers i do like them better, i also like better the actuation mechanism. Yes it feels like you have to push it completely so it actuate but it does'nt TCHAK it SNAP! lol
Makes a while i have'nt used China Blue, only using Mammoths Pro (Teal) switches.
All in all, yes i do like them better.
And the pricing at BLMS is unbeatable on these... i might have something around 75 teal remaining... once done, switching everything over for these.
These are the smaller black ones that I asked around about? GOod to know they fit in a std 3PDT board.
I like the one I installed on my black licorice build too. A little less thread to deal with on the outside, I think it looks a little nicer. I'll probably switch over also once I use up the rest of my previous china blue and teal.

You only have to press them in with a little angle in the daughter board first, once in the pads, there's no real bend made to the 3PDT lugs, neato!

My only complaint so far about this switch design and it's something that is also present on the Alpha ones. The push button is mounted on a shaft and there's a bit of play, so when handling the pedal it make some little moving noise... ...but that is probably my moving part «avoidance» ocd.
Yeah, me too, it's on all kinds. If they made it a tighter fit. It would be prone to bind unless you pressed it dead square. Don't like the rattle though.
