ps........ easier to install it. It doesnt have the adjustable path (no one until now adjusted the path so no reason to keep this function) but its so easy to install it. You just screw it on GG without worring about the position of the rings:)

ehrm, do you mean nobody except me had ever adjusted the distance the switch needs to travel to make contact ? w00t w00t.

i shortened it as much as possible without doing accidential contact.

Just finished installing the magnetic button upgrade in my GGTS, GGS and GGSS. Only had to use two magnets in each of the GGS and GGSS to replicate the feathery soft touch the spring had.

I highly recommend this upgrade because now the button presses are so silky smooth and quiet. I used to be able to ever so slightly hear the spring compressing when I pushed the button, but not anymore with the magnets.

The secret to getting a good grip on the "nail" when unscrewing the button is to use flat nosed pliers with a rubber glove to act as a grip for the pliers and a cushion to not mar the brass. The other end of the rubber glove can then be used to grab the button with your fingers and as nice firm twist and it comes apart.

Yep, I've got a bit of rubber sheeting that I cut up into sections and use for all these types of unscrewing. Using a cloth just isn't protective enough (as I found out to my cost on my first GGTS)

So the magnets worked out ok for you too? Good stuff.... ;)
