Helder's Game Tech SP Power Switch

I really needed this and a few other parts for my SP since the person who had it before me really put it through the wringer and this switch really helped with getting the SP up to par. Helder does good work and Retro Modding is real good at getting the order out as soon as they got everything ready.

This power switch for the Gameboy Advance SP is not an acceptable replacement for the original.

The switch's plastic nub that interacts with the original plastic of the external power switch does is smaller than the original. In other words, it doesn't fit the GBA SP which it is supposedly designed for. I stuck a small 0.3mm piece of toothpick on either side to make it work (was not working at all before then), and it did work intermittently after that, but it was extremely stiff. About 1 month later, the switch completely failed.

I bought this because I thought the community may have made a better switch than Nintendo, but I ended up having to buy an OEM switch from somewhere else to fix the mistake. I should have just disassembled and cleaned my existing switch.
