Not recommended for frequent use or in tough conditions
I do a fair amount of basic electronics tinkering and DIY projects, mostly decorative and functional 3D printed lights. I've been dabbling at SMD LEDs and came across these as a result.I'll very quickly touch on a fact that's discussed in many other reviews: These switches aren't momentary. They're latching. So assuming a switch is off, you press it down until it clicks and release to turn the switch on, and press down until it clicks then release to turn the switch back off.Moving on the switches themselves, I've only used a couple and while they're working fine, one of them shows slight instability. I used this switch on a crude LED rig to test lighting behind lithophanes, so this switch is getting used often in sporadic bursts as I turn the LEDs on and off. Every once in a while, the button wiggles a little bit, which moves the contact under the button. This causes continuity issues, with the LEDs flickering and dimming as the button moves around. I've been able to stop this behavior by clicking the switch off and on a few times, but it's still surprising.I want to use these switches in a small "keychain light" LED lamp I'm planning to make soon, and I'm questioning how stable these will be. I'll update this review as I use the switches but as of now, I'll say they're good quality hardware, but may not be a good choice in a device that's going to see frequent use of the switch or subjected to physical impacts. If you were to use the switches in a scenario where they're only activated occasionally and not subjected to impacts, I think they'd work perfectly fine.

Great tiny on-off switch for hobby's
easy to install & wire up . I use the tiny switch's to turn on aux equipment such as lights on some of my R/C model boats.

Latching - NOT "Momentary"
I can confirm what other reviewers have noted: These are latching (click-on, click-off) button switches. Recommend that the word "momentary" be removed from the description.They do have a very nice tactile click, and should work fine for my hobby application.

Not a momentary switch.
Quality seems good but these are not momentary switches. They are standard push button on off switches only.I updated my review. I found a use for them and they work great. I'm only giving it 4 stars due to the inaccurate description. I love how tiney they are. The latch on on/off is crisp works well.
