[* black] Time to pull the pin on this crank.
-[* black] Out it comes. There's a cylindrical magnet embedded in the shaft. As it cranks, the rotating magnetic field hits the aforementioned [link|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect|Hall effect] sensor, which activates ... something, in your game.

[* black] One thing this crank won't do? [link|https://www.ifixit.com/News/48944/heres-why-ps5-joysticks-drift-and-why-theyll-only-get-worse|Drift]. There's no wiper or spring or sensor surface to wear out. The design is simplicity itself. You might even say there's ... no cranky-panky.
+ [* icon_note] The Hall-effect sensor used here is an Infineon [link|https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/sensor/magnetic-sensors/magnetic-position-sensors/3d-magnetics/tlv493d-a1b6/|TLV493D-A1B6].
[* black] Elsewhere on the front side, the tiny mono speaker is adhered in place. Pretty easy to remove, but would be fussy to rework and replace.
