The "green" part is that I think it uses less power than switches before it. Not too big a deal considering a switch takes only a couple watts, but still nice to have a switch that doesn't heat up. Yes, I just touched mine right now. My switch! You pervert! Not that it is National Masturbation Month or anything... oh wait, it is. :awe: Anyways, my point is that my previous switches have gotten hot, and I've had them die due to heat (open up case, chips inside look scorched).
