    Got some mini switches to check for 2026.
    This one is rather unusual, it has BL0937 metering chip, which I have not seen in mini switches yet. CB2S module is mislabeled on this switch. Has usual standard BP2525 and AMS1117 3.3V regulator chips. There is space to upgrade capacitors.
    Config should be like this (not tested)

    What do you mean by mislabeled CB2S? VDD pins, TX, RX swapped?

    Yes, labeling is mirrored, 3.3V and ground should be on the opposite side.

    Ah, again... I'm curious whether we are still seeing this single mislabelled batch, or is there a factory that keeps producing it, or... what's going on with it, in general.

    The date code is 2025 so this is not the same as previously seen with date code 2023. Seems like new batch.
