Review on Enhance Precision & Safety with πŸ’‘ the Innovative KREG PRS3100 Multi-Purpose Router Table Switch by Jeff Addison

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not what I expected

The switch works, nothing bad can be said about the functionality. It's pretty easy - on or off - with two power outlets on the back. I needed at least 15 amps to power my soft start router and dust collector. I had never seen this product in person before buying it, so I was a bit disappointed when I finally received it for the following reasons: - The whole body is entirely plastic, like a blue box. I'm all about metal. Feels very toy like. - The switch is not as big as I would like if it works. - The yellow key is difficult to remove and reinsert compared to my other Ridgid switches with key locks. - You can only mount the switch *behind* the bracket. The switch bracket with pre-drilled hole is flat on the front; However, there are several support flanges on the back of the bracket/holes that prevent the switch from being flush with the *front* support post. This makes the installation inflexible. This does not apply to a closed router table. If it were a metal case of sufficient caliber, the mounting bracket would not need such support flanges. This product is used frequently at Revain stock sales and I'm sure many of the issues listed above are the reason why it is returned so often.

Pros
  • Power tool parts and accessories
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
