I've been thinking about this. It would be great to use it as a switch
but I haven't found the logic in it yet. I've used some trial and
error to try to find the correct wire positioning but I think I'll
have to bring out my multimeter and check how the wires are connected.
If anyone has the answer I'd be happy to get it, too. :)
Meanwhile the polarity switch and some rubber bands should do the
trick.
