 Goes back to that “minimize unique parts count” idea. 	


   Right on . . .



   The ONLY unique parts in toggle switches are (1) spring loaded

   on one side only and (2) -1 switches that are single-pole

   single-throw; two terminals on the back. When we were selling

   switches, we didn't stock the -1 switch because a -3 would

   nicely fit the same application.



   But it's REALLY important that one understands how all the

   proposed parts for your project function. Understanding trumps

   conventions, traditions and habits every time.
