Need toggle switch advice

That switch has 2 ON positions. It will work for your application however one direction wouldn't really do anything.

Example: middle is off and whichever direction you choose will be the ON. The other direction will not function unless you want to make that one do something else.

You want a simple ON OFF switch not an ON OFF ON.

Otherwise, the switch is the proper kind.

He can use that 2 position toggle for Reset and Power if he wanted, but yes, a momentary SPST is what you want.
that site doesn't list a SPST Toggle.

This is the type you want,

EDIT, this is a normally off switch, so this will work for you.

Appreciate it. I take it this switch will also work for a reset as well?

Yep, that will work for reset as well. you will need 2 of them, 1 for the power and 1 for reset, just to be clear.
