mb-6582 needs 48 tactile switches and 15 rotary encoders. Let me know if you are interested. I'm in Canada.

rotary encoders are so expensive.. voti is cheaper even if u live in canada

If you can get over 100 ordered, people would still be saving money by not having to pay for shipping from 2 different places (Voti for encoders, Mouser for switches).

Unless, of course, Voti has the right switches.

Those are the same buttons and encoders I used for my project and the same supplier.  I would totally jump in on this one its only a year too late. If others are thinking of going in on this group buy I would personally recommend the tactile switches I believe the encoders are w/detent so as long as you don't mind that feeling they are great, however you can easily take the apart and remove the detent.

essentially these are the tactile switches:

however, I would recommend ordering your LCD screens from mouser too if you have not all ready as part of this bulk order, they have some really nice 20x4 Optrex screens and if you are bringing them into Canada, the less shipping you have too pay and the least amount of brokerage the better.

Hello,

please switches you got for your project are "momentary" type (press "on" , realese "off"') ?

thanks
