The led wire is stiff enough to keep the button up. You need to bend it a little upwards to function correctly.

Interesting. Is is the spring in the wire which keeps the button up when not pressed? Wouldn't a bit of plastic spring of some form be better?

A loop at the back would be nice to put it on a keychain.
