This is my controller and can say that buttons feel more secure and is working as should, uber repairs repaird 3 of my controllers and returned all in working order i 13 days 👏👏👏
Great to hear you're happy and the controller is going strong. Thank you for the comment and choosing us for the repairs!!
What do you do with your controllers dude?
Amazing video, thank you. Do you happen to know the dimensions of the battle beaver tactile switches ?
just over 5mm
I have the same button caps what is the diameter of the plunger on the tact switches you ordered? I’m getting 3.25 ID on the caps.
does it matter what side the ground wire goes to in the back button prongs??
Hi Uber Micro Repairs,
Would you be able to advise the part number for the digital bumpers? I’d like to order a replacement to repair a friend’s controller, but Battle Beaver refuses to provide me with this information.
All the best!
If I'm cleaning connection points on one of the boards in my controller, would regular rubbing alcohol work? Or would you recommend something else?
Hi, rubbing alcohol is Ok however it is usually about 70% alcohol and 30% water. Water is bad and can cause electrolysis to happen (currosion when a electric current is applied), so if you do use rubbing alcohol make sure it's dry before connecting the battery / USB cable. I use 99% alcohol so I don;t have to worrk about it drying since it's not electricly conductive.
Omg I just ordered one
It will be fine!
I hope so but when it comes in i will test for wobble
@@thembg34 Atleast you didn't buy a SCUF 👍
I bought a scuff reflex fps off ebay coming in next week... what's wrong with those
@@thembg34 Can't comment on the Reflex's TBF Although I do have one on the way in for repair. However the PS4 Scuf's are really bad.
Have the buttons from battle beaver improved after this video?
I don't know TBH. We do get a steady stream of Battle Beave contorllers in for repair. I'm also intrested and will report back with another video if I see an improvment in the hole size.
@@UberMicroRepairs Nope, they still haven't improved on the back button hole size. The main reason I returned my Battle Beaver was due to the back button having too much wiggle/play creating lateral movements, and not actuating when clicked. Only Uber has the solution where the button, when pressed, is dead center - like at 5:20.
Where did you get the buttons?
Through Lot's and lot's of searching .. Then through lot's and lots of purchasing on weird Chinese site's, eBay and Ali express too.. Also through lots and lots of entering card info on wearied sites.. Basically... Trial and... error and testing!
@@UberMicroRepairs appreciate it
important question: I took my controller to a repair shop and they are saying the problem with the buttons on the back is that they are oxidizing or corroding I guess? And that they'll just clean them and give the controller back. Could this possibly be the problem or am I wasting my money? The controller is only two months old and has never gotten wet or anything like that. If that is possibly the problem, is there any way to prevent corrosion from happening in the future? Like contact cleaner every couple of weeks or something like that
We see this issue a lot with the likes of battle brave ans such. We don't clean them we always replace them with moisture & dust resistant switches. I guess they could be right due to swear and what not... But I doubt it after only 2 months use.
@@UberMicroRepairs really appreciate your fast response!!! What switches do you use exactly for the back button repair? Also is there something I could easily spray into the button to help with moisture resistance? Or something I could bring to their shop so they can apply it when it's opened up? thanks!!!
Hello, can i have the tag of materials for do that ? The description link don't working...
It's an older video. I've updated the links to current ones.
What are the names of the switches? Do you sell them?
not sure if you've heard of the company extremrate but I have been starting on making a list together to mod their existing paddles to be ones like the battle beaver ones in your video Do you know what the diameter of the cap and drill are and where I could get caps
We have heard of and used Extreame Rate. We "rate" the quite highly. The do quality 3rd party controller parts and mods. The hole is just a smidge over 5mm.
cut the waffle, repair starts at 6:11 👍
Thanks!
Our favourite hero. I'm just starting to install buttons exactly like these ones on my scuff impact because I really don't like the paddles, even though I love the shape of the controller. So supermega helpful. Wish me good luck! And if I ever get in trouble, I know who I need to call now!!
Good luck!
Did you manage to get the buttons working on the scuff? Same here - hate the paddles.
I’m thinking about getting a battle beaver. Out of all the custom controller brands which would you recommend the most? It seems like all of them have bad reviews but I’d like to know your opinion on it? Thanks!
Not SCUF! That one is out of the question IMO. Personally for me It's between Battle Beaver and AIM... Both have good mod work but both can develop issues. BB can have issues with rear buttons and AIM have issues with the digital triggers. However this is only based on what I've had in to fix and controlelrs that are up to a year old. They could have fixed the issues by now.
so im in the US could u fix mine still?
Apologies if you addressed this, but is there any concern with the hot glue peeling up/separating over time? I saw that you scored the plastic to help the hold, but my (inexperienced) gut feeling is that it would still fail or stop holding the button steady after a few months. Is there something I'm not considering, or is the glue just stronger than I think?
I'll try to address the hot glue question in one of my new upcoming vids. Sub and keep a look out👍
where can i buy the key hat? (black buttons) please let me know!!
Hi, This is the closest think I can find on Amazon. However if you contact us we can sell you some. We have a few different colours that fit Battle Beaver buttons. amzn.to/3WSi0Or
Related to this video is an AIM PS5 controller with a faulty R2 digital trigger. th-cam.com/video/WUOEC768Zk4/w-d-xo.html
I have the same problem with my ps4 battle beaver….is there another way to fix it cause i don’t have the stuff to do as shown in the video😅
Don't think I can advise if you don't have the tools and equippment I use in the video, I doubt I could do it with anyting less. Remember I do this as a paid service
Thanks a lot for posting this video, as I am having the same issue. Is it true that you don't repair controllers from outside UK?
Yes, correct. I really wish I could offer the server outside the UK but shipping and customs charges are just too high!
i'm from france and can't send my controller to your office, can you tell me where i can buy the clicky piece please ? :(
i need to know where the wires go under the battery pack. i took mine apart and didnt pay attention to where they go. Any help would be appreciated
Where can I get those tact buttons? And also do both buttons share the same ground?
If you message us we can sell you a set and yeah all the same ground, just daisy chain the the ground wore it each button. enquiries@ubermicro.co.uk
Why couldn’t you re use the previous shell? Couldn’t you just install the new buttons into the holes on the original shell?
the holes are too big. Did you even watch the video?
Brother you think theres an other solution hievtest fix that ?
I'm open to suggestions!
I have a battle beaver ps5 with smart triggers. Yesterday it stopped register when I press it down. Still here the click sound. Any idea what it can be? 😢😊
Might be the back stop that has punched out.
Need Help! I have a PS4 Controller Battle Beaver and the back buttons and functioning very well. But my only issue is that one side can making a the clicking sounds while the other side isn’t making them. Both of buttons can perform their actions. What can I do?
As the old saying goes " If it an't broke, don't fix it" 😂 However if it's really bothering you, you could contact us to seek a repair or if you're confidant and have the tools replaced the switches yourself.
I'm currently doing a mod on my own like this I have made holes for the caps that wiggle just a little but they still fall out. How do I get them to stay on the tactile switch? I have a box with different sized 6x6 switches and only the long ones fit which are too long
Tesa tape 2mm width or hot glue. NOT SUPER GLUE!!
what switches an buttons are these do you have a link where i can order them
need this video but for a ps4 battle beaver :o
Can I ask what tactile switches they use in battle beavers please
Or a recommended tactile button the ones I use last about 2-3 weeks :/
Hi God, They are 6x6x7mm tactile switches. We don't use the same switches as Battle Beaver. We use the dust and moisture proof switches. We have some in stock but not on the site. Contact us if you would like to purchase some.
@@UberMicroRepairs yer I want some for sure please what social can we speak on to sort some out thanks 🙏🏻
Just out of curiosity, what size tact switches did you use there? 6x6x4? I'm having a hard time having the buttons hold on my 6x6x6
If you 6x6x6 you can cut 2mm off the plunger! 😎
How much for this?
Here is a direct link to our PS5 MODDED CONTROLLER MAIL IN REPAIR service. www.ubermicro.co.uk/product/ps5-modded-controller-mail-in-repair/
Could you please refer us to the part number either mouser or digi key for the buttons ? I just received today my battle beaver and it is clear that the holes are too big. I am thinking of reusing the same buttons and just rework the holes, however worried about breaking the buttons when removing the glue. What are the cables to use as well when soldering to the buttons ? (amateur at this making sure I don't mess up)
Hi, I got mine from a chinese supplier. I think they are ALPS 6x6x7mm with 170g of force. However these micro switches are so generec I'm sure with the dimensions I said you should be able to find some. the 6x6mm is the square base and the 7mm is the hight from the square base to the top of the round plunger.
@@UberMicroRepairs thank you so much !
Hello, where can i buy the back switches?
Mouser, digi-key, RS. for good quality. Or you can risk it for a biscuit with eBay, amazon or AliExpress.
What's the part number ?
Can you explain the 3 wire thing? When I normally do them, I just do 2 wires per button but the way you do it, looks a lot easier and saves space
Daisy chain the ground wire.
@@UberMicroRepairs so the ground can be all on 1 wire?
@@maxis576yes it can
What gauge/size wire are you using can you link it please? great video
30AWG Kynar wire.
❤❤
Same things happened to my Battlebeaver , one of the back button wobbles too much. What type are those rear switches you used? Link?
Great vid Btw.
Thank you. Can't offer a link because I use suppliers for my parts. but a standard microswitch with the same dimensions from ALiExprss / eBay will work.. The main thing is replacing the rear shell and drilling the correct sized holes is key to the button working correctly.
@@UberMicroRepairs do you have a part# i can search? I see many micro switches all very similar. What gauge wire did you use also when replacing the black i assume ground wire?
