The goal now is to make a fully functional smart-switch in its final mechanical form. Below is a picture of the electronics and the 3D printed shields. The electronics have not yet been programmed with the firmware from the 2nd proto-type but it is producing 5V from the AC mains.

The 3D printed plastic bits do not fit very well yet so the electronics are wrapped in electrical tape.
