hey tim, surely you can still solder them anyway, lug or pin? momentaries are cool, lots of uses.

if you are really sick of the sight of them and they are push-to-make i would definitely use them, i like them. but it depends where you are as postage could be more than they cost. i'm uk.

i can send you some regular 3pdt or something in exchange?

i *HATE* soldering wires to PCB pins.  hate actually doesn't even begin to describe how i feel about that, actually :D

shipping will definitely be more than what the parts are worth :-/ - i'm in Canada

tim, you hate easy! i thought the canadians and mexicans are supposed to be the chilled ones on that continent. do go red-faced trump on us.

with pins i just strip a bit more insulation back than normal and wrap the wire around the pin. makes it as easy as regular. but if you are soldering to a pcb i suppose it might be a shade more trouble.

alas transatlantic postage would indeed be a passion killer. but many thanks for the offer anyway.
