Are these stomp switches the same?

[jdduffield]

Are these the same. The price is different but they look the same. I don’t mind the extra cost if it is a higher quality switch.

I don't know if they're the same, but I recently bought the Amazon ones (Daiertek) and I like how they feel. Not too much force required, not overly clicky. No idea about longevity.

Can't speak to these switches specifically but every component I've bought from Amazon was garbage. Especially the fake lumberg DC jacks.

Especially the fake lumberg DC jacks.

I'm having issues finding real Lumberg DC jacks. The mini ones, Are any of the non-real ones ok or is it a crap shoot?

 

[Mentaltossflycoon]

The only places I buy them are sbp or lms these days. I was actually shocked to see them offered at all from Amazon.

I have been using the non-lumberg ones from sbp, lms and tayda. I have heard mixed reviews of reliability for these, but since I build mostly for myself, I can put up with a faulty jack and replace if it fails (so far none have).

If I were selling pedals I'd splurge for the real ones. Sbp and lms both have the real deal.

I use these. They're from the factory Lumberg used to get theirs from before they changed it.

I choose Tayda over Amazon any day. I've only had 1 problem with one of them from Tayda years ago and they made good on it and gave me a full refund for it.

daier is about the only Amazon level brand I would trust, I’ve had no issues with any of their switches so far (I usually only get SPST though). Looks like it’s from the actual daier storefront, you’re good.

14 for $25, that's a pretty good deal then.

Those cost more than the current Lumbergs.

The current ones feel awful so it's worth the small price difference to me.

For a while I bought the red "same as" switches from Tayda, and they're good, but have a weird click (harryclippton got me too see that) but now I buy the Pro 1kg switches from StompBoxParts.

same... I needed some switches and didn't want a big tayda order and those switches from amazon felt fine with no issues.

 

[Ginsly]

Amazon-wise, I've found these to be good, and I really like the 3pdt boards as well.

I saw they had reissued them as something similar - what’s wrong with the new ones?
