"Arcade Joystick Spring Arcade Joystick Spring In this video I discuss what the spring does how it works and explain why we don't get 4lb of resistance form a 4lb aftermarket spring. If you are here to find out how much resistance you get from a 4lb spring installed into the standard Sanwa JLF joystick let me burst your bubble; it's not 4lb. Not even close. According to my measurements the force needed to actuate switches on a Sanwa JLF joystick with a 4lb spring is 0.795lb or 361g. I go into a bit of detail as to why that is in my video - have a look.

"Elecom HUGE vs ProtoArc EM03 Elecom HUGE vs ProtoArc EM03 This is a video I prepared that compares the Elecom HUGE and the ProtoArc EM03 trackballs. In a hunt for a fresh pointing device I decided to get a new trackball to alleviate some of the discomfort I commonly experience after prolonged mouse use. After some research and poking around the internet I focused my attention on two popular devices that are geared toward users with large hands are designed for index middle finger and ring finger pointer navigation (not the thumb) and are often sold at a reduced price ($30-$60).

"Sanwa JLF "6 lb" Spring Force - measurement and specifications Sanwa JLF "6 lb" Spring Force - measurement and specifications The [--] lb label on this spring might sound like a promise of brute-force resistance but its not a literal measurement of the force youll feel in your Sanwa JLF. That number refers to its maximum compression load - a lab rating not a gameplay guarantee. In real-world use the actual resistance is much lower and influenced by factors like lever geometry actuator size and shaft deflection. What the rating does tell you is that this spring pushes back harder than its "2 lb""

"Arcade Joystick Spring Arcade Joystick Spring In this video I discuss what the spring does how it works and explain why we don't get 4lb of resistance form a 4lb aftermarket spring. If you are here to find out how much resistance you get from a 4lb spring installed into the standard Sanwa JLF joystick let me burst your bubble; it's not 4lb. Not even close. According to my measurements the force needed to actuate switches on a Sanwa JLF joystick with a 4lb spring is 0.795lb or 361g. I go into a bit of detail as to why that is in my video - have a look.
