Hi, can somebody explain to me in very simple terms the following:
- Push to make switch.
- Momentary-action

I *thought* they were the same thing.

The switch is off. You push it, and it's on, but when
you release it it goes off. Perhaps momentary action
means it only stays on momentarily even if the switch
is still being pushed (like the power switch on some PCs).
