William G. ★★★★★

After the original switch on my mini lathe started flickering, this kit fixed it in one evening. The crimp terminals and multi-stack quick disconnect made the wiring tidy, though you do need a soldering iron for the un-soldering step. Solid little upgrade for the price.

Steven E. ★★★★★

Swapping this onto my mini lathe took maybe twenty minutes, and the multi-stack quick disconnect made wiring way less fiddly than the old setup. The upgraded switch feels solid and the light actually comes on every time now.

Elizabeth A. ★★★★★

The crimp terminals and multi-stack disconnect made this a clean swap once I got the old solder off. Took maybe twenty minutes on my mini lathe and the switch feels way sturdier than the stock one.
