Paid for itself on job #1 ! I had an old obsolete hard working oscillating tool that served well but the power switch got stuck in the ON position so it ran any time it was plugged in which can become dangerous. No replacement switch available but I didn’t want to throw away an otherwise perfectly good tool. I had searched for in-line power switches but found nothing. I had not considered a foot switch until this WEN Foot Pedal Switch popped up in a search. I am so glad I decided to give it a try. It could not be easier to hook up, just plug the through-plug into an outlet then plug the tool into the through-plug. Touch the foot pedal and the tool and power adjuster run like they always did, then release and the tool stops. It is not a latching switch so you just hold to run and release to stop which is even better than the built in switch because if you have lost your grip on the tool or for any other reason can’t reach the built in switch the tool stops the moment you release pressure on the foot switch. Not only do I not now have to go out and buy an expensive new oscillating tool my old tool is even better than it was before!Rated 10 Amp at 120/240 VAC with a six foot cord this switch puts control of most tools right at your toe tips. I expect this switch is going to get a lot of use.

Exactly what I needed. Was impressed that it had some weight and substance and not a cheap plastic thing as I was half expecting

The device performs exactly as I had hoped for.

High quality, good price. Seems solid enough to last at least a few years and was much cheaper than most other options.

The foot pedal switch works very well, but it is a little small , and too light in weight to use in a wood working shop.

Wen’s Model WA0392 Electric Foot Pedal Switch (momentary contact) is made to last. The top and bottom sections of the foot pedal are made of metal and not plastic which is great and means it will last a long time and will put up with abuse from foot operation. This switch can be used for simple turning on and off a shop vac, dust collector or connect a long extension cord to an electric winch when the operators hands are busy. Switch is rated 250 VAC @ 10 Amp load and has a cord length of 6′. Highly recommend adding this to anyone’s shop.

Connected this sucker in between an extension cord and a triple socket ac adapter. Connected my power vac and tablesaw together to it and I tell ya it’s a thing of beauty

Not heavy duty. Not medium duty. For a drill press, this is much better and 100% safer than having to reach for the on/off switch. Remember not to stomp or apply full weight to pettle.

My only complaint (and it’s a minor one) is that the cord could be longer. But it’s a great value at this price. I would recommend it.

Didn’t realize this was a momentary switch. Needed an on/off switch. so I returned it.

Works as advertised. I am using it to operate my workbench grinder.

Works well for my 3/4 HP meat grinder.

Ever get tired of constantly looking for the switch for your dust collector or other power tool? Check this foot pedal out. It plugs in super quickly and easily. It’s got an immediate response and reaction time. I can also see this being handy for my router table, scroll saw, lathe and other woodworking tools. So happy I ran across this for safety, speed and all around great user experience and design. It is really well made with durable metal and plastic. I would definitely recommend for any modern garage or shop.

I cut the switches off and threw them away. I used the cords to control my station lights. (I couldn’t find elsewhere a 3-prong outlet with cord out the side for a switch.) They work great! Thank you for making such a good product!

The momentary power pedal is perfect for drill presses. I currently hooked mine up to my 10” drill press, and I love that I can have both hands on the workpiece now. Normally I have to constantly move back-and-forth between the on/off switch and the handle and the workpiece. Having a foot pedal frees my hands up to adjust or secure the work piece with one hand and have my other hand on the handle making making things a lot less tedious around the drill press. The build quality seems to be good, just about the only thing I could wish improvement on is the length of the cord. Having it just a foot or two longer would be better for those higher up outlets in the garage. Otherwise a good product.

Was pleasantly surprised by the quality. The body is metal, not plastic and is weighty so it will not move around. The cord is sufficiently flexible that it does not tip the switch over. I like it and thing it is a great value. Bought 5 of them for hands-off (Covid-19) museum displays.

Model WA0392 package insert says 120v/240v 10A. The US version plug (120V) and 3 prong connection on a momentary foot switch that handles 10 Amps. It has a 6’ cord between the foot pedal and the power plug. I only needed about 6-7 Amps so I did not call the manufacturer for details. I added a triple tap to use 2 devices. The pedal has good feel and solid on/off when stepped on and released. Very positive action. I hooked it to my 5A small vacuum and my Dremel Router tool and it works great. I use it to carve small projects or logo into back of frames. Constantly taking 2 hands to turn off the Dremel between twists and turns of the piece or light sanding was troublesome. Now I just step on the pedal and the vacuum and the Dremel start up and I can carve, stop, check lines and go right back to work at same speed. Exactly what I needed. I recommend this for any application you need a momentary switch.

Pedal switch is actually pretty small, very low-profile and unobtrusive.

This simple device works Great! Was purchased to activate my Meat Grinder so that it didn’t need to use drippy messy hands when the motor didn’t need to run. Other manufacturers charged north of $45.00.
