A while back (~ 1 year) I replaced the original on/off switch on my Ridgid 3650 TS with a safety paddle switch from Grizzly (http://www.grizzly.com/products/h8243). This switch no longer worked about a couple months ago & I found out it was discontinued. It was replaced with (http://www.grizzly.com/products/Padd...110-230V/D4151). Grizzly CS was very responsive in sending me a free replacement. Unfortunately this replacement paddle switch also decided to go south after limited use. It has become very difficult to push the switch hard enough to turn the saw on, yet it still works well when shutting the saw off (same symptoms for both switches). I'm reluctant to pester CS service again for another replacement thinking another paddle switch would wear out prematurely as did the previous tow switches.
So, I'm wondering if there is a good quality paddle switch available for about the same price. Any suggestions, or is this a case of buy cheap get cheap at this price?
