Default What's the difference between these 2 switches?

I've bought quite a few of the Protek switches for $40 but then found this cheaper one that looks exactly the same on Ebay for $12.99 so I got one.

Before I take this one and one of my Proteks apart to see what they look like inside, I'm wondering if anybody knows if there's any difference.

Anyone's guess really - could be exact same thing just rebranded, or slightly lower quality components in the SkyRC. Lots of rebranding going on in the RC world, after all, but also copying. Functionality should naturally be identical, regardless.

They are literally the same switch that come from the same manufacturer. SkyRC makes the G-Force products, Hitec chargers, many Protek parts etc.

That's good to know.

I don't want any of my nitros running off.
