Re: pic: Lamp_Switch
447 used a similar lamp switch on our minibot at BMR. We purchased ours from a local TrueValue. We passed inspection, but was told we were really pushing the interpretation of common household light switch. After a team discussion, we decided that we could continue to use the switch as it is used commonly on lamps and the wall-mount requirement was removed in an update.
Just my $0.02
Also FYI, during the regional we successfully deployed on the field twice (+ numerous successes on the practice field) and successfully triggered the tower both times.

FIRST is not about building robots, it is about building people; the robots are just a good way to get the people there. - JamesBrown [more]
