You can make them quite cheaply (under $10 each) with linear output, no spiking, and no contacting parts -> no wear.

The hard part is mounting them nicely in a stick with a conventional base.
Thanks - I've just been thinking about using a U-joint or similar for building a stick and now I know I'm not crazy... A car U-joint seems a bit excessive though? What about a tie rod end or something?

Is that yours in the link?
