Chris- Try these:

you have to pull up/out on the handle to be able to change position on the
switch- hard to do by mistake...

I have the perihelion design toggle guards and they are in use, but since my
plane is all electric, with an electronic ignition system (rotary), I want
to ensure my primary master and primary fuel pump are as secure as possible,
thus my desire for this, what I would think, simple design......guess not so
simple.

Wow, I am beside myself understanding this.  I concede only a base knowledge
of supply and demand, but that these toggle switch guards, which I really
like, cost almost $225.00 EACH with a five unit minimum is astounding.
Perhaps you engineer types can shed some light on what makes what seems like
a pretty simple design so pricey......even in aviation dollars this seems
high.  Only one supplier too (may be part of the problem).  Also, I have not
been able to locate anything similar.  I like the openness of the design and
what seems to be a smaller footprint than the standard toggle cover I am use
to seeing.  What am I missing?

I wish I had the skill set to make my own.  Heck, if I used gold, I am not
sure if they would cost me as much...and gold would not be the best material
for the purpose...or I wouldn't think so.....

Freedman and Hyack did not prepare me for this.....;-)
