We found the extra mass of the tubing would give it a higher inertia, and give it a higher tendancey to bounce.
We solved this by removing the tubing and by repositioning the switch so that it contacted a bent metal section of the lever, in tandem software also implemented debouncing code. (Which I think we disabled after fixing the problem mechanically)
As for what limit switch, in Australia we use: http://australia.rs-online.com/web/p...itches/515735/ It is pretty much identical to the one that came in the KoP (except grey, and slightly higher current rating) and has been very versatile.

Is there any way that i can see the code that you wrote?
