A different design for a Bistable Compliant Switch. The original was designed with much tougher and more flexible polypropylene in mind, and it tends to destroy itself fairly quickly when printed in PLA. So I put in a spring element instead of both solid, in an effort to reduce forces that overwork the hinge. I also made it small and reduced the non-functional material, so it prints faster and there's less waste just to see what it is, and if it doesn't work or breaks quickly there isn't much loss.
Printed in eSun PLA PRO I have one of these working well for several days and many cycles. Not sure how it will really fare with regular PLA, since PLA PRO is considerably tougher.
I'll put some more info in the comments..
