Description

This premium UI component is a digital recreation of a mid-century analog power toggle. Designed with a 'Vintage Industrial' aesthetic, it features a heavy brass lever mechanism set into a dark, grain-textured mahogany plate. The design leverages advanced CSS techniques including multi-layered radial gradients, SVG turbulence filters for authentic surface noise, and cubic-bezier transitions to simulate the physical resistance of a high-voltage switch. A warm, vacuum-tube inspired amber LED provides immediate visual feedback, glowing intensely against the dark, moody background.
