Putting the finishing touches on my shop. My dust collector and air compressor sit on the other side of a wall in a different room. When I did the original wiring I put in a 220v 20A wall switch for the air compressor in the shop. Did not put in a switch for the dust collector because I figured I would buy a remote controlled switch.
Been thinking maybe I should just put in another wall switch for the dust collector. Figure I will spend more time looking for the remote when I need it rather than walking over and flipping a wall switch. Plus $5 is way better than $60 or so for a remote. It would be easy to do, just cut a hole in the plywood wall for a box a little above the 220 outlet on the other side and wire it up.
What do you folks use and what have you found to be the pros and cons.
