Atari 800XL powerswitch Replacement

I checked the datasheet and while that one is close I believe it will sit too low(switch body in contact with circuit board instead of being 2.54mm above it), plus the switch contacts are only rated for 0.4VA @20V(must be an error, should probably be 0.4A)

Proper termination style would be AV2 instead of V5.

Switch contact option of G or L instead of B

 

From the shape of the pins these look like they were cut off of PCBs and not really brand new, 0.4VA is actually 0.4Watts if the load is purely resistive and somewhere between 0 and 0.4watts in a resistive/inductive load.

If you mean the V5 termination has shorter leads that is because the switch body sits right on the PC board, the AV2 termination switch has longer leads to compensate for the 0.1" thick spacer/mount under the switch body.
