Great Switches - Electronics

The switches work great although they make the perfect RV replacement. I use them in our school assembly and they work great, I'm very happy with them.

Pros
  • Best in Their Niche
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Poor packaging

As other reviews have written, one of the switches that comes with the kit had the pins bent backwards. When carefully trying to straighten the pin, the pin broke off.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

The buttons are huge: Electronics

The buttons are huge, if not graceful. However, I want to return it immediately, just watched the video from the market on YouTube, knowing that amazon will most likely send all returned products to the landfill, I'm embarrassed to return it. Will fix if it still bothers me after a few weeks I will return it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Modernity

Lots of failures in just a few years

My van conversion has 7 of these switches and I've had several random and unexplained switch failures over the past few months. I had to replace 3/7 switches and reliability is now in question. I keep a few spares in my kit because breakdowns have become so common and inconvenient.

Pros
  • Superb design
Cons
  • -

Good form factor but flaws

I like the compact 4 switch box but there are 2 flaws that bother me. The paddle connectors on the back are mini paddles. They are not regular size spade terminals. I couldn't find any mini jacks so I used regular insulated plugs. They work, but only one side of the connector actually makes contact. The second problem is that these switches are very loose. There's no real "click" in them. I have it installed under the counter in my van and I keep bumping into it with my knee and unexpectedly…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Everything is great
