Review: Worked great in my table saw - I ordered a couple of these Hitachi Soft Start modules to retrofit my table saw and shop vac. They're rated for 15A which is more than enough for my tools and unlike cheaply build no-name modules it has heavy 16ga wire and a heat sink to dissipate the heat generated from being in-line with the motor. Wiring the module into my saw was really easy - I just added some spade connectors and a Y adapter on neutral so I could insert it into the existing wiring without modifying the saw. The saw still starts pretty fast, much faster than the no-name module I had to use for my miter saw, but slower and quieter than it used to be. Best of all this authentic Hitachi part was less expensive than the no-name modules! Honestly I would have preferred to use one of these in my miter saw also but with the heat sink it was too big to fit.
Review: has simple schematic on the back, worked great. - good value, has a heat sink, adjustable, arrived fast, has simple schematic on the back, worked great. My chop saw recently started tripping the 15 Amp AF breaker the garage shares with some bedrooms. I couldn't tell if it was tripping on amps or arcs. New brushes didn't help. This looked small enough to fit in my chop saw handle but I wish I hadn't tried to put it into the handle, kind of a nightmare to get the handle off, then inside the handle I would have no access to the potentiometer, plus ultimately wouldn't fit. But if I'd been thinking harder at the beginning I never would have tried to take the handle off. Has EU brown/blue color code so I looked that up:blue=neutral. For some 12VDC RV project I bought an extension cord because that was the lowest $/ft 16 AWG jacketed cable. This soft-start module plus the plug form the cord and some parts I had around worked great to wire up a soft-start outlet box. Solved the problem also, saw starts/works great in the original outlet. I seem to be able to tell the amount of soft start increases as the pot is turned counterclockwise. Good luck.
