Hey Belushi ... All new protege's come with corrected mechanical switches
Think you all have sold me, one more question though. To use as a USB pass-thru, do you need USB Extension or USB Adapter or both?

Ohhhh, I get it, sounds like the "The Protege/USB Adapter" is just say it can be used with the Protege or stand alone PS USB pass-thru. Just getting mixed up on the title, thanks!!
When you guys talk about break in periods on the button and the hard push.. want to make sure im on the right track. Currently if i press the button as far as it will go it does not work. If i push it further than it will go it fires as normal. 'm I doin it right? I'm hoping that the push will get easier, to where I can just press the button without excessive force to use the protege.
If I unscrew the adapter fully around one and a half times it fires effortlessly. Is that just where I should keep it, or should it eventually accept a full screw?

Hey Guys! hard for me to say!
With the mechanical switch - The adapter is used to align it. So if you need to adjust the adapter to get it perfect, you should be fine. The adapter won't spin itself off!
If you guys have backup devices, I am more than willing to take a look at them for you to see if I can help resolve the issue. I have quite a few resources here, and I can mix and match some things
I lost the oem switch on the protege today - ticket submitted - and the two mechanical switches I got with the usb extension didn't work. I saw mention that there's 'long' switches available so I'm guessing that will be part of the solution on them.... but I also saw mention of a workaround until I get them - can someone point to that post/thread. Thanks.
I've been working at it for the past 30 minutes, but no matter what I try i have been unable to get the protege to leave my hand.
On the prodigy with the mech it closes fully and the switch doesnt wiggle. I'll give it a week, if I'm not able to get it to seat neatly I will send it in for expert tweaking.
Anyone? What's the workaround until you get the 'long button' for the mechanical switch? I'm going on vacation in a few weeks and would like to take the protege along, rather than send it in right now and not get it back.
Kent -- When are you leaving bud? If you can get it shot to us via Priority before the weekend or on Saturday, good chance we will have it Monday and it can go right back out so you can have it by the end of next week! There really is no good workaround Kent! Best if I take a look at and resolve once and for all

Steve,
Leaving at the end of this month. I found the one that was mentioned here:

But I'll get it in the mail to you tomorrow.
Thanks,
