Great For The Price

I just bought these switches for a switch box project I am working on. Can't beat the price for these switches. I used 7 of them, and all worked with no problem at all. The LED's all work and were plenty bright enough to see in the daylight. The rocker feels solid, not wimpy. Not overly stiff like some posters have mentioned. I used a 20mm drill bit for the hole, and that proved to be a perfect fit, after filing a groove for the alignment tab. I have no idea yet how long these switches will last, but in my application they will not get a lot of use, and nowhere near the rated current either. Time will tell. The pins are 3/16", and I used Radioshack crimp quick disconnects instead of soldering them. No problems with breaking switches installing the disconnects, but I did have to work them onto the tabs carefully as they were very tight.At this price, if they fail, I will buy more and replace them.

Pros
  • The round rocker design is easy to use and provides a comfortable grip for quickly turning the switch on or off
Cons
  • The switch may not fit securely into the dashboard or control panel
