Now that smart switches are all the fad I don't expect any vendor to invest any R&D in a new kind of simple mechanical switch instead of electronic types. Even the low-voltage relay system cited above is being driven from the market by wi-fi and bluetooth and (God help us) TCP/IP. | |

The problem here is the form factor. OP and I want a SPDT or DPDT latching pushbutton switch that looks like a domestic light switch and is rated and listed by UL. | |
