One of the switches we used came in the Tetrix kit we received, and the other we bought from a hardware store. The inspector argued that if he followed the literal wording of the rules and followed what the GDC publically posted on the FIRST forums, then our minibot would have been illegal. But he allowed us to use it anyways. Cool?

They removed the language about the whole "wall mounting" thing in update 12 if I remember correctly. What seems to be the rule of thumb right now is: if you can prove it is used to turn off a residential right of some sort it is a legal switch.
