I think we need to have a web museum for all the funky electrical fixtures

could fill volumes with its collection of back stab style outlets, switches,
and fixtures. The last one that I removed, a back stab single pole light
switch needed to be completely disassembled before the wires could be
removed and the act of disassembling it would render it broken - better hope
you get the first install right because you'll need to buy a second one
otherwise. Dissasembly was done with a pair of needlenose pliers - no
screwdriver required.


I have had some of those switches (backstab only, one time use), but
seem to have thrown all those out.
