Arrrgh. Help me find these buttons

[jrkirkish]

I've spent 3 hours trying to source these buttons :'(. The're exactly what I need, and I was thinking maybe TK or somebody knows where to get them.

They may look familiar:

I can't find them anywhere. Anywhere that ships to USA, at least.

it looks like (rubber) caps on simple tactile switch buttons.

so you just have to search the right caps for the switches of your choice. I recommend to order a test-pair before spending lots of money on 100 pieces that don't fit in the end ;)

best regards,

Those are tactile switches, they're sold with the cap attached, they have a very clicky feel and sound, I personally have tried them in the store and didn't like the clicky feel and sound, but visually they look nice, a slightly rough finish on the top, and have good dimensions.

Here's a link where I saw them:

But I also had a look at a tactile switch with separate button cap, these switches are practically identical to the ALPS part SKHCAEA010/SKHCAAA010/SKHCACA010 and have a much nicer feel, and the cap is waxy smooth plastic... and switch+cap is cheaper than the other ones... I'm leaning towards these for my MB-SEQ...
