''clicky'' rotary encoder

[Astrit Arsllani]

Hello guys

i was wondering if some of you know how to find or how even how to search for rotary encoders so when i turn them left or right i hear or feel a click some sort!!! i have seen some videos on youtube for some button boxes build but none of them have left a link on where to buy those type of encoders!

thnx for anyone who will help

search for rotary encoder switch, some have push button function, the number of steps per rev is available in different configurations. There is also smooth versions available (but I guess you do not want that).

normally, they have A and B pulse and you just connect one of them as input
