I had the Wahl orange, eight hour charge version. I added a switch

You should have kept that one.

I did, for about 12 years. Finally, the transformer went bad, and
the third battery pack shorted out. It was starting to develop cracks
in the iron's body, so I reluctantly salvaged the only good parts, the
diode and the bulb.
