Title: Blue three-pole double-throw switches
Post by: jrem on April 11, 2007, 11:50:00 AM
Anybody having any problems with these?  I have one box with one of these in it that I use a lot, and the switch is iffy at best, it's kind of pissing me off.

Any failures on these, or is it a one-out phenomenon?

Any opinions?

There have been problems. Use the search button and you'll find some words on the subject.

i've had issues with blue dpdt switches.  they are the ones with the cheapo looking thin red adhesive keeping the lugs in, as opposed to the thick red gunk in better 3pdts or dpdts.
iffy at best is a great way to describe them!
