This is strange since Linda at Carlsen and Rod at TPC both told me that the 3
terminal version supercedes the 4 terminal version of the infamous
multifunction switch.

I too lost a 3 terminal one in only 11 months--overheat switch latched on.
Here's hoping the new one lasts a bit better.

Can you provide part number and supplier of both versions? Which is really
more reliable?
