Cool variable switch maybe good for homebrew

I thought this was cool not sure what the specs are on this demo one but it says they can make them in different ways the harder you push the brighter the laser http://www.grand-illusions.com/acatalog/Quantum_Tunnelling_Composite.html

I like the idea on a burner, a light press would get you on target and focused...give it a squeeze and get it up to full power...

much cheaper to do with a dual action pushbutton though, like the ones on digi cameras half press focus full press shoot, I thought this was cool because it is continuously variable.

would be hard to hold it steady at a certain power level, i think i would prefer a knob imo
