Im building a stunt saber for my friends birthday and he wants the general design to be just like my first saber ( http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com/showthread.php?15301-First-Build ).

Sadly, there are no more Short Latching AV switches, so i was going to see if i can use the new converter. ( http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Momentary-to-latching-converter-45-20V-P929.aspx )

Because I've never used this before, I was wondering if anyone has a schematic of this in a stunt saber?

Here is an old write up of how to wire it...

I can still use a short av momentary switch instead of the tactile right?

The latching switches were discontinued because they didn't sell well anymore. Sorry.
