From: "Ethan Dicks":
I don't recall if the Straight-8 uses identical
actuators as the ones
in the auction above, or not. The tips look the same, but having
never seen them out of context, I don't know if they are identical, or
merely similar.
Personally, if someone ever does replicate actuators, I'd be primarily
interested in the -8/L/e/f/m type first, and the -11/34/35/70 type
second. For now, though, I'll sit on the sidelines until someone
claims success and starts listing prices.
Here's a fellow replicating switch handles with some success:

That's a Straight-8, and the actuators look identical to the
8/L/e/f/m ones (except for the color scheme).
