    Piezo buttons!

    Hmmm, it seems the apem piezo button i've been using isnt available in small quantities any more. Does anyone know of a piezo that'll support prolonged pulses (eg you can detect a long push using it).

    Failling that, anyone know which piezos are being used by the likes of revo?

    I'd just email Paul at revo, he's usually really helpful.
    I stink, therefore I am.

    Fair comment, I was just trying to avoid bothering someone who's probably pretty busy

    Nope. Prolonged pulse switches (like the apem) seem to be no more. Paul uses momentary. KevJ mumbled something about having piezos for sale, but hes done the vanishing on email trick which usually means hes busy/got distracted.

    You can get a decent IP68 momentary from schurter (RS & Farnell stock them), that might be a faster route.
