[sdiy] For Sale: DPDT Toggle Switches

[Justin Owen]

Graham,

The switches are manufactured by Ningbo Best Group/Final Best Group in China.

I purposely didn't mention the manufacturers name for three reasons:

1) I'd never heard of this company myself until I tracked them down - out of about 10 possible suppliers, so I figured they weren't exactly a known quantity. I could be wrong about that.

2) The switch model number is MTS202 - which seems to be a generic model number for this type of switch (there's about a half dozen manufacturers who use this model number).

3) At (potentially) UKP0.30 a switch - including delivery, I'd figured that most people would realise they were getting a good deal on an economical switch - and not that I'd forgotten to mention they were a C&K or similar.

I bought these as a replacement for the Salecom switches I've been using, which I've been less and less happy with. The switching action/feel and the overall build quality leaves the Salecom switch in the dust... IMHO.

They are not the cheapest switch I could find - but definitely the best value for money at this price range - again IMHO.

Cheers,

Justin

Justin,

You have been very detailed in your description on Ebay but you don't  
mention
the manufacturer which I think will be very imormportant to many  
prospective buyers.
Reliability is paramount.
