💡 Enhanced 120V Motor Lighting Contactor Pole: Optimize Electrical Performance Review

Easy to install This device does what I need but was a bit overkill in my case. I only used 4 ports on the front on the front white part. Didn't need anything else. A simpler device option would be great and maybe a little cheaper. For but my application worked.

This is the relay I used for the water heater project first - see my other reviews. I found it a bit noisy under heavy loads (the water heater draws about 18 amps per foot at full load) and was difficult to install. I will replace it with another relay (40 amp instead) and I expect it to work better. I'm sure it will work for another project.

I bought two of these to run my mill and lathe but when I tested them before plugging them into the control box I couldn't figure out why it was making that loud buzzing/knocking noise without actually keeping either contactor closed (i.e. on). must be installed so that it is in the correct orientation, i.e. horizontal as if mounted on a panel. It's pretty cheap to me, it tells me the coil isn't strong enough to overcome gravity for a 3 pole contactor, which isn't good. I would seriously…
