So, I've been looking for a good long while for a DPDT momentary footswitch for a long while. I need it to have a soft touch with no latch-style "click" when pushed. I have been told they do not exist and that I would need to use a tactile switch, a pcb, along with a spring-loaded plunger assembly. I have found the switches, but cannot find the plunger. Can anyone direct me towards a solution one way or the other? I continue to order things that sound right in the description, but just don't work for the application I need it for. Thanks.
