      Haven't tried to use 5V = same shit no go

      So I will use some mechanical

        I don't know anything about these proximity sensors, but experience with mechanical end switches is that they're less consistent.

        Have you tried something like these or these? I replaced my mechanical switches with the UK ones, and they work really well - even at 5V.

        Few things are more dangerous than taking the advice of someone who thinks he knows what he's doing.
        I'm still on my learning curve, so take everything I say with caution!

          Way too big for my taste, and yes I have tried.

            Just about every kind of inductive sensor you might need. This is the source I use.

              I know about them but way too expensive to get parts to Sweden.

                My bad - didn't know you were in Sweden.

                        On my Delta i use These

                        I use them for Z probes but never thought of using them for endstops.

                        To date I have used micro-switches or IR beam-break detectors.

                        Thanks for sharing another approach.
