I would be interested in this as well, price pending. Right now I use a toggle switch to turn my computer on and off. When ON, it shifts from 1st to 2nd, but won't go to 3rd. When I turn it off, it defaults to 3rd. Sort of like a paddle shifter, except it's a toggle switch on my time drive circuits!!!!
