Poor quality switches

I have bought a lot of rocker switches.



I got a poor quality product with these.

I had to solder the wires to the connectors.

What did you expect for $1.05 each?

Maybe if you paid more than a buck each you would get a better product. As a general rule insulation displacement connections really only work for one particular type of wire when they are good. I doubt these are the state of the art.

Who you talking to? You can;t even make the peanut gallery as you make no reference in your silly reply.

Throw them away and buy these...

Sorry, my post was supposed to be to snipped-for-privacy@aol.com.

Yup, a crucial thing those $1 switches are missing is UL Listed,CSA Listed.

The pics did not show the inside of the switch, if so I would not have bought them.

I got a 20% refund.

You are the guy who bought some no name Asian switch for a buck and wonder why it is not top quality, or even acceptable quality. I did point out that it might work for one particular wire type, just not the one you have.
