## Overview

The Adafruit 3101 Soft Tactile Button is a pack of 10 compact, 8mm push buttons designed for PCB mounting. Featuring silent, soft tactile feedback with normally open metal contacts, these buttons provide reliable, noiseless input ideal for electronics projects, especially retro gaming builds. Lightweight and durable, they offer a premium feel reminiscent of classic handheld controllers.

## Description

Put your project in stealth mode with these silent Soft Tactile Switch Buttons. Tactile switches are standard input "buttons" on electronic projects. These work best in a PCB but can be used on a solderless breadboard as shown in this tutorial. The pins are normally open (disconnected) and when the button is pressed they are momentarily closed. They come in a pack of 10, they're pretty handy so you'll want to keep them around. These are great for projects like the PiGrrl, PiGrrl 2, Pocket PiGrrl or PiGrrl Zero since the elastomer buttons feel better than the default clicky ones. The activation force isn't linear or documented, but a similar switch is listed as 120gf.

Review: I used a normal 6mmx6mm tactile button which felt amazing but the click was obnoxious. This is a big improvement from the factory mushy button. Feels great and is quiet.
Review: Simple switches, good quality, and they respond well. They feel closer to the switches/buttons used in a lot of the older handheld console and controllers.
