I bought this product for use with my Delta 1 1/2 HP dust collector, and I can't recommend it highly enough. Installation is simple (just plug the receiver into the wall, then plug the dust collector into the outlet on the receiver), and a wall mounting bracket is provided. The Long Ranger is rated at 20 amps, but my dust collector draws somewhat more than that in starting up (I had an electrician check it when he installed a new circuit in my shop for it), and the Long Ranger has never complained.

Though the instructions warn that certain types of motors (Shop Vacs were mentioned specifically) might cause interference, I've had no trouble -- the switch performs perfectly from anywhere in my shop, and it's a lot more convenient than running over to the dust collector every time I start up a power tool!

I am really happy with this purchase. Plug one end in to the wall and the collector into the box. It doesn't get any simpler. It is so convenient. My collector is on the other side of the shop. It seems like I always get the saw set up, the stock lined up and then I remember to turn on the collector. The remote has a metal clip that allows for hooking on your belt or apron string. A push of the pressure sensitive button and the collector is running. It's a beautiful thing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works with 2hp HF DC, April 9, 2007

This review is from: PSI Woodworking LR110-3 110-Volt Long Ranger Dust Collector Switch (Tools & Home Improvement)

After almost a week of continuous use, the LR110-3 with no problem powers the Harbor Frieght 2 hp DC (the LR110 is rated for 1.5 hp). There is no noticeable loss of power or start up speed to the DC. The relay unit appears ruggedly built, in a metal box, with a beefy 6' power cord and a fastening device to hang on the wall. The remote is in a plastic case. I did drop the remote almost immediately and it stopped working but it turns out the battery that came with the unit went bad, not the remote. It worked fine after replacing the battery. I did take the remote apart to inspect for damage. It has a small circuit card with components soldered on. Good workmanship and I would be hard pressed to see the remote electronics damaged if it were dropped. The remote has a metal clip to attach to belt.

The Long Ranger is a wonderful convenience to turn on/off the dust collection system I have installed in my 1 car size garage. I was using a device that detected power tool current to turn on the DC but that is too frequent on/off for such a large motor and also sometimes doesnt let the DC spin up to full speed before engaging the tool. The Long Ranger is an excellent choice to solve all these issues.
