how do you set up a push switch in an led lightsaber not push on / off but one you push then comes back off again

A momentary switch you mean?

It comes on only when you press the switch and off when you let go?

I'm not sure exactly what he's talking about. :?

You can't really "set up" a push button switch, you need to buy the one that does what you want, in the first place. It's not like you can wire it differently, not a single pole single throw switch.

You need to buy a switch that is capable of the action you want, be it momentary (only on when pushed), or push on/push off.

That's a momentary switch.
