Dear Janne,

Aren't Dynamit Nobel somewhere up in your 
neighborhood?  I'm sure they can supply a 
properly stabilized universal unlatcher at 
nominal cost, or direct you to a 
distributor.  Some people prefer the Czech 
competition as being easier to operate, but it 
leaves nasty black cobwebs all over everything.
