Welcome, Junior, to ECN ... and thanks for the info.

As for tornadoes ... until the day a tornado hit the ultra-modern concrete Catholic Church in Plainfield, Illinois (1990?), I was not aware of any structure, of any design, surviving a direct hit by a tornado.

I am curious .... what's wrong with toggle switches? I've traveled a fair amount ... and while the appearance varied, the 'rocker' motion, or 'toggle' switch seemed almost universal. Even the 'Decora" styles have the same operating method. What type of switch are you suggesting be used?
