Nice upgrade to the classic switch

I have an old house with a switch box that needs an old school switch that is no longer made. I have only found used switches of the same model. This switch is a nice update and we're back in business.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price

Good price (for this model)

Check out Lowe's and Home Depot, the price difference from one switch review to the other is insane. However, if you cannot upgrade the entire panel, it is recommended to replace the aging switches. Watch the video, play it safe, do it right, or hire a professional.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Much better than the original switch

This 30A double pole circuit breaker fits my son-in-law's old Zinsco panel as intended. The switch he replaced was for the water heater.

Tire damage was minimal, but I installed this new switch on an undamaged section of the tires and it works fine. Love the fact that this switch has screws for the load wires instead of spring terminals like the old switch. My…

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
