These switches are very durable. Nothing about them rattles and doesn't play, but it's not heavy either. The posts and body are solid, and the slip resistance is just right for a sense of action when the inner toggle switch is flipped. Don't let the photos fool you. These switches are designed to be soldered into through-hole pads on a circuit board. This product does not fit into holes on a breadboard when shipped. The photo is to show that while the pins are not designed for a breadboard, they can be trimmed down to the correct size in just a few minutes with a good file. Remember to blow all the sawdust off the switch before connecting it to the breadboard.
