[sdiy] Push buttons with nice light action

[Scott Juskiw]

I'm not sure how I would measure the amount of force required to  
activate the switch, maybe that info is in the data sheet. It's  
certainly not a light touch, but it's not overly obstinate either.  
There is no way that you'd accidentally activate it by simply touching  
it, you have to give it a good push, probably 1/8" before it makes  
contact. It's probably not what you are looking for.
