    Anyone with an old house (mine's from 1923) that have retrofitted outlets could use these.

    These are more involved than the ones shown in post #!, but these are something I could make easier than the spring version.
    The middle body could be a purchased coupler or simply a piece of square bar stock. Threaded rod ground to a point and a nut lock-tited into place.

    Figuring out the lettering on the switches - that is a whole other issue!
