Female quick disconnects vs. soldering microswitches

<< < (2/6) > >>

darcyp:
i like soldering. very solid, and not permanent at all, just heat up the solder and move it somewhere else.
that being said, i have never used quick disconnects. i already had all the soldering tools, and didnt feel the need to buy stuff for the disconnects.

shfifty:
Quick disconnects FTW. Even if it just a simple task like replacing a broken button, it makes it soo much easier.

Never said permanent. I said a bit more permanent than quick disconnects (because once I've soldered something, I don't want to change it anymore).

Depending on the control panel, de-soldering can be a PITA.

I use QDs for microswitches (unless they are an odd size and I don't have a QD handy) and solder leafswitches.

Exactly as you should. :)
