Sukit,
        It looks the same to me, should work.  The only disadvantage is that they are more expensive.  Mouser Electronics are their US distributor and had them at around US$4 each, depending on the exact model but they didn't have any stock.  I couldn't find anyone here in Australia who carries them (that's a big surprise).

>I just found the encoder in a electronic store by accident (yeah, I was so busy finding the pot for my throttle last week before receiving mail from Jay).  It's not the one that Kevin used.  By searching from the net, I found www.piher.net wherer can you download a PDF file of model CI-11 (incremental encoder). it gives 15 or 20 pulses/detents per a full rotation forming A & B output signal and looks very rigid with aluminum shaft. Moreover, it has a built-in push-on momentary switch. So, we simply have 3 switch from this toy to work with!  By the way, I couldn't search the similar model from Digikey.
