10pcs Plastic Reed Switch Reed Contact Normally Open (N/O) Magnetic Induction Switch (3mm×14mm)

I bought a pack of these a few years back and they were 100% reliable. Then I bought some different ones that looked the same but they were flaky so when I needed some more I went back to these. So far so good.

They do exactly what they're supposed to do! Just make sure to not try to run more than the rated 0.5A through them, or the contacts will fuse.

Used these in an HO coach car to turn the lights on and off with a magnet and some circuitry. I like the plastic case as well, because it is harder to break than the glass ones.

They seem to work fairly well, only occasionally getting stuck closed. Be careful to handle gently or the glass can break. Next time I'll try plastic housing versions.

Works like it should. No issues.

On time, exactly as described

Switches arrived quickly, tested snd installed into project, the switches worked better than I expected. Very sensitive and work every time. Great well built product.

Wish I read the critical reviews before buying. Given so many positives I thought for this price why not? I did some preliminary testing and though they were a bit finicky but seemed usable. When I soldered them to some lead wires I soon realized that after use they would stay closed and did not release. I spent hours 3d printing components to use this for a project that required a certain order of positioning based on the magnets and reed switches have to scrap the idea because I went with these cheap switches.
