Pros

The 15 amp foot switch is a high quality switch with contacts rated for 120v, 240v and even 600 vac. It can easily handle the low voltage requirements for what i used it for. I run a christmas light show which has an interactive sign which viewers can...  Read More

The switch is very ruggedly built. The foot petal is strong enough to las a longtime. I'm sure it will hold up to the * of being outdoors and subject to heavy-footed viewers.

Heavy cast aluminum housing and appears to have a quality coating of paint. Easy install. Has a nice heavy duty feel and click to it when depressed.



Cons

The only thing that gripes me is the misrepresentation of the anti-skid rubber on the bottom.

Price


For the price i am pleasantly surprised

I was a little surprised there was no real packaging when it arrived and the insulatorclamp from the picture was not included

I am using this foot switch to control a heavyduty resistance soldering unit that can draw up to 1800 watts 15 amps

    There are several cheap plastic usb foot switches available but nothing that looks very robust and even more expensive switches look pretty flimsy

    Can be wired either normally open or normally closed
