12Pcs 1A 250V AC 2 Pins SPST Momentary Mini Push Button Switch Normal Open (Pack of 12) CYT1078

These buttons are very well made and good looking. After reading several reviews that mentioned meltdowns during soldering connectors I had some doubts about the purchase. I soldered several of them to 25 gauge stranded wire connectors and had no problems. I'm pleased with the overall outcome after mounting them in a plastic box that holds the entire circuit. I will buy more of them for future projects. However, I did follow common precautions for temperature sensitive parts - pre-tin the wires, use thin solder wire with rosin, and a hot soldering iron so that the operation can be done quickly. I would say: "not for soldering rookies." The buttons are indeed made from plastic are potentially very easy to melt by a longer soldering operation.

Nicely built little buttons.

I used one of these switches for a push button open activation for my electric gate opener. It works fine. The problem is that now I am stuck with 11 switches I don't need.

I used the N/O plunger switch on the cutoff for a lawnmower. The way something lawnmower ate set up you need to squeeze the handle to start them and evertime you let go of the handle it shuts off the lawnmower. So if you need to stop to pick something up that in the path of your cutting such as a downed branch or a piece of paper you need to restart the lawnmower to me that's mighty unhandy. I know it's a safety thing but you can't fix stupid for some people and that's why they built safety features like that. For me it's a inconveniences so I have overridden it. I am not suggesting to do this but if you find it unhandy like me these switches work perfect for the kill switch. If you are smart enough to override the handle control and install the switch them you are competent enough to run the lawnmower without having to use the built-in safety feature. Just a note be careful soldering the wires on you don't need much heat !!! Remember that these are plastic switch.

Size needed for hole to secure was about the size of pencil eraser. The entire product is fairly small with button slightly smaller than remote control round button (approx 1/8 inch).

I have ordered thses little momentary push buttons in the past for uses from magnetic disruptions to power buttons for to activate a acuator to open the doors of my compition truck. these little buttone are usefull for any reasion where you need to give or remove power to a devcice for a temempary reaction, like powering an actuator, changing the colors on a guage or disruption of powe to an electromanget. these switched work so well that they almost never need to be replaced. I hope this helps in malking your descisions

2 out of the 4 I installed were faulty after install. Keep soldering heat to a minimum or it seems to break something inside.

Great button switches, i definitely feel like the are worth the price. nothing much to complain about. I thought they would be a bit bigger if the specs tell you the size then i missed that. They are about the size (max length) of a quarter.
