SENCTRL Automatic Vacuum Switch Allow Power Tool/Table Saw to Turn Vac Cleaner/Accessory On and Off Automatically, Load Sensing, On Delay Prevent Circuit Overload, Shop Dust Collector Off Delay

This is a replacement as I had one before this as it was stolen off a job I was working on. It’s a great unit.

After 60 years - yup, 60 - I decided to set up turning table saw on and off easier - why it was difficult is a long story! This switch works very well. Looks good too. Strongly recommend.

Turns ona nd off when it should. No complaints.

IT IS EASYE TOUSE AND WORKS GRAITE, SAVES LOTS OF DUSR INHALING + WORK TIME

For me it was a great product but my idiot self forgot I use my shopvac on my cordless track saw. So I had to go to the switch and turn it on. I saw on my search there are ones with remotes so I can leave it on my track saw . Product works perfect as it said in the description. But I need one with a remote for my cordless track saw

UPDATE 2: After only a couple months, my replacement crapped out (again). Not only does the switched tool outlet not power on when the main tool is activated, no outlet works. It's a pile of junk. I'm happy that Senctrl proactively leaned forward and replaced my original unit, but the fact that two units in a row failed means I simply cannot recommend this for any serious use. I guess if I were more electrically savvy I might be able to crack this open and replace some defective parts (might be that the defects are replaceable by cheap but robust parts), but this hardly makes this a recommendation to buy. If I were you, dear prospective customer...please go shopping elsewhere (I have). UPDATE: Senctrl responded to my negative-ish review by offering me either a refund or a replacement product. I chose the replacement b/c a) I just wanted an auto vac switch that worked, and b) I do understand that some products simply fail earlier than expected, and was more than willing to give 'em a second chance. I am happy to report that the replacement arrived w/in a few days (Amazon normal), and works perfectly upon installation. I'll update this review if the product appears to fail in an unreasonably short timeframe, but for now, kudos to customer support for standing behind their product--I'm pretty sure that I got the replacement outside the official warranty, and for no questions asked. Happy days. //original review follows// I added this to my table saw setup, so I could simply turn on my saw and the attached shop vac w/ cyclone separator would start automatically, without me having to step around to switch it on. Worked like a charm, and I especially liked the feature that kept the vac powered for seven seconds after the saw stopped, to gobble up all those particles still swirling around. All was good for about five months, until one day it simply stopped working. Cold. More specifically, rocking the switch to "off" indeed means that the vacuum won't start. And the "(always) on" position works. It's just that the justification for this $30 switch, the "auto" position fails to power on the vacuum at all. Now, I can work around this by simply switching the rocker to "on" before I power up my saw, but again, this totally defeats the purpose of a little pricey switch box to begin with. And, yes, I verified the issue was not my vac by plugging in another device into the vac port. Clearly something in the unit fried, and this highly disappoints me. It's a solid state product and should last for years and years. Five months? Look elsewhere IMHO.

Simple and reliable. This was a great addition to a chop saw in a shared environment (maker space) where not everyone cleans up after themselves. I like that it’s very easy to turn on manually if needed, and the timed engagement where it stays running for a few seconds after the saw turns off is a nice feature.

Works great, bought 2 more, one for me and 1 for a gift.
