Dayton Audio DAEX-13-4SM Haptic Feedback Transducer 13mm 3W 4 Ohm

This is a small device, the first of it's type I have seen at this scale. Just a few watts of audio into it and amplfiy the results. Most users will think of it as a physical feedbacker, it works best in a feedback loop or a send return network with a buffer. Use it to augment a piezo in a guitar. or excite a a guitar transducer, use as an addition to an Aum Guitars Vibraslide or as a modernised version of the original electroacoustic Sustainiac. This would be a fantastic addition to a Koma Field Kit.

This was my first time using a haptic sensor and a Dayton product. The product worked as expected. Soldering was easy to do with the exposed terminals. This small device delivers quite a vibration for such a small form factor. I placed two of these next to arcade buttons of a virtual pinball machine I built. I liked the fact that it included an adhesive so I could stick it to the surface I wanted to make vibrate. I will definitely buy more of these. I also own a larger "puck" transducer from Dayton so I can attest the company manufactures quality components.

Not for continuous use in arcade gaming or pinball machine. Got hot, smoked & melted in less than 3 minutes of light but continuous use with lepy amplifier. Do not use for haptic feedback in a virtual pinball build.
