Hi, I have a 10" Picade V2 purchased in 2020. Unfortunately, the power button has stopped working which I think is due to the spade connectors.  
I read that Pimoroni switched to this new button ([Metal Illuminated Button (Picade Power Button)](https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/metal-illuminated-button?variant=39389954048083)). Is this new button compatible with my Picade version?  
Thank you!

Yes it is - the spade connectors on the new button are a bit bigger though, so you might need to do some creative crimping of the connectors on your existing power wire to get them to hang on (or if you have a spare set of wires hanging around from wiring up the rest of the buttons that would be the right size).
