Review on ⚡ U-BCOO 12V 60AMP Manual Reset Circuit Breaker: Reliable Marine Trolling Motor, ATV Audio, and Car Vehicle Current Overload Protector with Household Solar Series Online Fuse by Hector Liamsi

Waterproof plastic cover that cannot be removed when installed

Rating: **U-BCOO Waterproof Circuit Breaker with Manual Reset and Shift Button Car Boat Truck Bus Fuse 12V 24V **V Overall, this is a decent manual reset switch that works as it should (at least for now). Pressing the disconnect button breaks the circuit and you can flip the switch to reconnect. They are great for circuits where you need a breaker AND a breaker rather than installing those components separately. I have a solar/battery system for my caravan that uses them to connect the battery, the solar panel to the solar controller circuit and the solar controller to the trailer wiring/battery strip. However, this switch is marketed as "waterproof". " by which I assume they do indeed mean splash proof when the clear plastic cover (included) is in place on the switch. Unfortunately they were unable to devise a way to remove this cover once it is installed, which is needed to reset the - or pressing trigger buttons on the switch.This transparent cover has tabs that grip the back of the switch and are positioned in such a way that you can't detach the tabs when the switch is actually surface mounted - a pretty basic mistake, at least for this one Aspect of the switch.Luckily I don't use mine anywhere that it gets wet so I just use it without the cover.Other than that the only other issue is that the rubber caps on the posts are just very thin on the Switch "belts" attached which can break very easily. Just slightly thicker straps would have been much better. Overall 5 stars for functionality, minus 1 star for the useless "waterproof" finish and flimsy rack cover straps.
