Just got an email flyer from MLCS, they're running a few deals including a few items priced at $19.95 ...

I think the "big red" power switch is a good deal -- needs to be wired to the appliance, but it's rated 20A where the ones I've seen other places are only rated 15A.

That safety switch looks great. I don't like the switch, or switch location on my HF bandsaw, this would be a GREAT upgrade. And I need a router table switch...

I know little about electronics. Can that big red Stop Switch be used with both universal and induction motors?

I have one of the Small Parts Holders. Works great if you don't want to get your hands or fingers too close.

should be fine -- as far as I can tell, its just a switch (no electronics involved)

I've not yet looked at the link, but

motors, when turned OFF, has a long and stronge arch at the contacts. You really need switches that's rated for motors.


The add says for router motor, should be ok for a saw.

Grizzly has paddle switches for an even better price, but unless you are buying something else, the shipping makes it a little higher than the MLCS price.
