WTB - Wanted 220v remote switch for Dust collector - Ricc Havens - 01-17-2020
Looking to see if anyone has laying around a remote control switch for a dust collector like the Long Ranger or Grizzly remotes or other brands.

I picked one up thinking I might rewire my dust collector. So right now it is nothing but a dust collector itself <grin>
Let me make sure I can put my fingers on it and that it works. I purchased it used, and have never tried it...
I am in PA

If you have interest in building one I can help you figure out how to do that.

Mikie, I saw a couple write ups online about doing that but it seemed like the supplies (contactor/relay, box, remote, plug, recept, wiring, connectors, etc) would end up costing me $50 or more with shipping. A new one from Grizzly is only $65. Didn't seem like a big advantage to do it that way. It would be an option if I knew someone locally that was an electrician who could get me the stuff at cost. But the only electrician I know charges me $75 an hour!
Thanks

Brian, let me know. I did have a used one given to me but it was DOA.

The advantage of building it yourself is:
1. It works with ANY size dust collector you size the contactor for - you are not limited to 2-3 hp or 20 amps in most cases.
2. When it breaks (remotes fail or whatever) the fix is as cheap as $10
3. Designed now you can have it switched on with your phone or alexa or any smart remote smart home setup
But I get the lure of just buy it and hook it up and go

Thanks Arlin, that's the one I was looking at. But thought I'd see if anyone had a used one laying around since I'm on a disability income
