Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Works just like it's supposed to
I ordered this switch for my new router table. While waiting for it to arrive, I found a Rousseau switch on sale at my local Woodcraft, so I got it. I found the Rousseau easier to mount on my specific router table, so I got the idea of mounting this Bench Dog switch near the right side of my table saw. I plug my dust collector into it, and I can flip the dust machine on, then the saw, do my cut and reverse the process shutting down. Turns things on, turns them off. The bracket is a little confusing ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - bench dog 40-028 power-loc switch
Little need be said about this except that it does what it is intended to do - it makes it far more convenient to turn an under-table mounted router on and off.

These are designed to be be mounted every way but inside out.However, I inset mine into one of the router table legs, to get it fully out of the way, while leaving it accessible from the working area of the table.

The only real drawback to these is the price, in light of that the job could be done with a standard ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Expensive for Adequate
The switch is good quality but that is to be expected for the price.The electrical cord could be a couple/three feet longer.The mounting scheme seems to be an engineering afterthought.I expected better -- seeing as it's a BenchDog switch for a BenchDog router table -- and would not make this purchase again.After purchasing this switch, I found another for $13 that I'm sure would have served just fine...a far cry from this 40-something dollar mistake.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just what you would expect from Bench Dog.
All of Bench Dog products are built the same - high quality.This is no exception, although expensive, sometimes I don't mind paying a little extra when you get quality.Plus much or all of Bench Dog items are Made in the USA!!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Sweet Switch
I've been working on what I wanted in a router table for awhile and decided to built my own router table into the right extension of my tablesaw which I built to my specifications.
I wanted to use a switch and a miter slot and when I stumbled upon a BenchDog aluminum extrusion for the outer edge this was the perfect switch for it.
Although I struggled with the price and thought about other options I went with this.
You can bolt it to that piece of aluminum and you can move itslide ... Read More
