The Sanwa JLX has achieved high-precision molding and improved input accuracy by changing the material of the component parts. Please review below some of the technical improvements over the JLF:
LX-P-2 M base material changed from nylon to POM (polyacetal resin). It is less susceptible to environmental influences such as temperature and humidity.
By increasing the thickness of the washer for the M base, rattling of the washer during operation is reduced.Adjusted the shape inside the M base where the bearing fits. Less rattling of the bearing than before.Changed bearing material from POM to nylon. Abrasion resistance and sliding against the M base are enhanced.The material of the micro printed circuit board is changed from paper phenol to CEM-3. It is less likely to warp than paper phenol and has improved durability.
A Sturdier Version Over the ORIGINAL JLX
The two most notable changes between the JLX and JLX2 happen on the inside:
- First, its body is revised to now accomodate a new X-shaped washer. This washer is designed to reduce risk of misalignment or "floating" as the joystick pivots during play. This can lead to cleaner diagonal motion.
- Next, Sanwa returns the originalSanwa JLF P-5 Actuatorin black. TheSanwa JLF P-W Actuatorwithin the original JLX is 16.2mm wide at the base - just over .4mm wider than the original Sanwa JLF actuator at 15.8mm.This fallback to P-5reintroduces the feel that some players say was missing with the JLX's white P-W actuator.
The center joystick restrictor can be popped out and re-inserted to make 4 way only movement (up, down, left, right). Unlike previous JLF restrictor where center piece had to be pulled and rotated, the stock restrictor on JLX allows removal and reinsert of the center piece to make the adjustment. Gently push in the 2 tabs on the center piece and it will pop out. We have added Video feature on this listing that shows the center restrictor removal,
