Review on πŸ”§ Skil SHD77M Worm Drive Saw Switch Replacement - Model # 1619X04521 by Daniel Fung

Revainrating 1 out of 5

This switch broke immediately.

This is a simple DPST switch. I installed it correctly and on a functional check I blew the circuit breaker. I disassembled the saw by removing the switch from the handle assembly, meaning the saw motor was not connected to the switch, and tested the switch with an ohmmeter. I found that when the switch was pressed, the resistance between the two poles was about 80 ohms. This resistance should be infinite. The switch is defective. This is inappropriate.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable shorter than other picks
