....and keep in mind, all we need is a switch that is a functional copy of the original.

Probably 60% of games I'm called to work on have a non-OEM EOS switch installed.

Even if it is a different brand, if it works, I leave it alone - because even if I changed it for the factory one, it would not improve gameplay at all.

Mounting holes are pretty standard.

Blades can be different lengths (you can cut them with wire cutters if they are too long).

PBR sells universal blades and the tungsten contacts, if you ever have to build a crazy switch for an old EM.

Low voltage leaf switches usually have gold plated contacts, high voltage use tungsten <=== most important detail.
