uxcell 6 Pin Square 7mmx7mm Momentary DPDT Mini Push Button Switch (Pack of 55)

These switches are nice for some uses, but NOT for standard 0.1 inch (2.54mm) printed circuit board spacing. The pins are spaced 2.0mm, not 2.54mm, with a 5.0mm spacing between the 2 rows of pins.This is not declared in the product description.

I am using these for flight sim setups I am making and at most these switches have 5v passed through them at minuscule amperages. I can not return them as most of them have been destroyed when I have to take them out of my project. Disappointed because the feel of these buttons are fantastic for what I need.

Now that I've used around ten or so of these, I can say that some are defective to start with, others get defective fast.3 out of the 10 have managed to survive a medium degree of use!If you are wanting to use these in a "must work" circuit, look elsewhere. These are very unreliable.

Several switches were already broken upon arrival, revealing cheaply made internals and an unreliable mechanism. The switches are not lubricated and the actuation force and recoil time varies significantly between switches. The pitch also seems slightly narrower than standard PCB through hole spacing, so the leads need to be bent slightly to fit in most applications

Arrived in new condition, and exactly as described. DPDT switches that all operate on momentary contact.

Most of mine fell apart during use.
