Tayda 3pdt stomp switches

I’ve been through over 200 from love my switches and haven’t had a problem with one of them yet...
 
Small Bear sells CIC Brand with ROHS stamp, never had an issue.
Same ones in Australia from Altronics, No issue!


 
I have installed over ~160 of the Tayda one, and found out that at least 2 of them from the last batch are in trouble right now.
 
I order about six of these, one was DOA, and one just went out on me. Not sure if I just had bad luck, but I will be getting mine from love my switches from now on. Just a rant.

Did you filled some kind of complaint at them? What was their answer?
 
I did not, I figured it wasn't worth it.
I think you should. I'm not saying they will refund or send replacements but I think it's worth they know about it.

Maybe I'm too much into open source software where even filling bug report is quite helpful... :)
 
I've only had one or two issues with an order from Tayda, but they always made it right.

Typically I think they offer a refund via PayPal, or 1.5x - 2x store credit.

Never had a problem with Tayda switches (60 or so switches) except for one that I overheated. They don't take iron heat as well as other switches so you need to be quick.

As above, definitely tell them. Their CS is top notch but moreso if there's a problem with their supply they'll check and fix it.
 
Anybody have luck with the cheapies that they sell on Amazon? 10 for $14 from Ttone.

I try to avoid those.

It's hard to see in their photos (especially because they show two different makes) but the darker blue ones with sharp edges haven't been the most reliable in my experience.

The problem is that some of the dealers show one type, but ship the other type.

Notice in the 3rd picture (the one with the bag labeled Protaitone) the blue is a different hue from all of the others and there are little tabs protruding from each of the corners. I suspect these are the ones you will receive.
 
I've always had great luck with LMS and SmallBear. That said I've have one or two noisy switches from Tayda but for the most part...no complaints. The LMS hardware isn't all that much more expensive and worth the money but if you're putting in a big Tayda order in doesn't hurt to have a few kicking around.
 
I have had good experiences with Tayda 3pdt. If you want to hedge your bets, just order several extras. Test them and keep them as spares to use if you eventually get a bad one.
