Great value, but needs a minor fix,
I love this pedal, it’s exactly what I needed to operate my dremel hands-free. The variable speed is great, and I love the safety of knowing that if I take my foot off the switch, the power goes away.
There’s one TINY problem with this, which is that the “IN” plug (the port where you plug in your dremel) is a 3-prong plug but does not fit polarized plugs (the kind of plug which has 2 prongs, one wider than the other). This is OK because you just buy an adapter at any general purpose store for $2.99 which DOES take polarized in, but does NOT have polarized OUT. There are many sorts available, and it’s just as safe. I just wish it came this way out of the box 🙂

|Specs,
The specifications on the bottom of the control are:
110 – 120 V
60 Hz
10A
China
The control in the pedal mechanism is a ceramic block with dozens of graphite discs in it, when you step on the pedal it progressively lowers resistance contact. I guess the ceramic block is to handle and to dissipate the heat generated. The female cord is short, less than two feet. The male end is 5 or 6 feet.
It stopped working after one time, but after taking it apart (for $10 I wasn’t going to return it), got it to work again.
If you think of it as a very very light duty or disposable control, then you have a reason to risk buying it for $10.
