Well its still mechanical then, just momentary rather than toggle,if you
like the toggle is electronic. A circuit with hysteresis, like a bistable
multivibrator circuit and one of the loads is operating the switch.


Which means the load is *not* mechanically switched. So the switch
depends on bleeding some current through the load for its electronics to
be powered.
