Backfeeder momentary switch

[Dameetch]

Hi all,
I’m close to finishing building the backfeeder and am thinking that I may have ordered the incorrect momentary footswitch

would anyone be able to tell me if this is the correct one?

Go for this one instead. It has solder lugs as opposed to PCB pins so will be easier to attach your wire to.

Also remember to orient the switch the correct way. You can use a DMM to determine which side is normally open and which is normally closed.

thank you!
Other than ease with the pins, would the ones I posted work?

Yes. It's the same switch except for the pins, being more difficult to solder wires too. Still not terribly difficult, though.
