I was searching for such a long time for a simple explanation and couldn't find one. You explained things with extreme simplicity and clarity! THANK YOU!
Thanks for the very informative and easy to follow video. I watched a few others first but they were not as clear and as easy to understand as your video. Thanks again.
So basically with DPDT, it outputs 6 connections/circuits, but you have to crosswire the leads so it reverses the polarity, meaning you shouldn't be adding wires to all 6 terminals. Thanks for this video. I was looking for a very simple explanation and couldn't find one.
I am gonna use one of those spdt switches as a hi/lo beam switch for my motorcycle. I'll have the power for the LED headlight split to a PWM and then to the switch, and then straight from the power to the switch to flip between dimmed and fully on. That way my dimmer will be adjustable
Hi I was wondering if you know what type of button I would need to wire up my motorcycle for a push button start. What I do know is the head light and the instrument panel lights run through the same button that starts the bike. The problem I have is that when I half press the stock button it disconnects the circuit that sends power to the lights and a full press completes a circuit to send power to the starter relay. It has two power wires, a ground wire, and a circuit complete wire the runs to the lights. I need a button that disconnects the always on circuit from the key then completes the circuit to the starter relay with one action of the button. It need to be simultaneous.
Hello, I have a SPST switch with a connector on it that has a brown, white and two red wires, how do I connect it to be used as interuptor switch for a single wire device?
Hello and thanks for the video. I am trying to understand an issue I have with new push button switches I bought for a motorbike. Taking the headlight as an example: When I press the button in to ON (it stays in as designed) - light comes ON. Normally to switch the headlight OFF I would press the button again thus returning the pushbutton to the off position. However it doesn’t work this way. I need to press the button IN - OU - IN - OUT (4 presses instead of two). Any idea why this would be? Also, if I just touch the button(not pressed fully in to the locked In position - then the switch activates the light correctly - slight press for ON and slight press for OFF (no locking button in/out) - this way it works. Would appreciate some tips of what’s happening and I hope I explained myself clearly.
what about when I have a switch where there is "on" down motion of a switch, then i have "off" middle position of a switch, and then agian "on" upward motion of a switch. Is that still considered SPDT switch?
That’s ON-OFF-ON switch. Mostly used in application like a motor, to reverse polarity. Meaning both + - has to go through the switch. It’s alternative of using a relay.
🛑Great video. But, the example you provided for the DPDT switch is not what the switch is made for! It’s unrealistic to wire 4 applications (devices) in one switch just to make each 2 work together separately from the other 2. DPDT is made to be used in an open and closed wiring circut independently and simultaneously, as it can separate both + & - connections. Mostly used in motors to reverse polarity / rotation.
This is just a general analysis of language and accents, so please don't take this as a negative comment. To preface, as a USA English speaker I could understand you the whole time. You're first sentence lacked your accent then it gained a little. Do you make a mental note before videos to speak clearly so different English speakers can understand. Again, I heard everything just fine, thanks for the education.

I'm trying to relearn after 20 years, this was perfect. A schematic demostration with a physical demostration. Exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Fantastic teacher, you perfectly connect theory and practical aspects very well.
You are an incredible teacher
I have seen a bunch of videos on this topic and so far this one was the best.
You’re a genius, so well explained, exactly what i needed. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Thank you for your time and the fine explanation of a SPDT switch. Now maybe I can make it work.
Great video, thank you, you have simplified it better than other videos and made it sound interesting. Great instructor. Subscribing now!

Best explanation out there. Much thanks
Thank you! This video is very helpful in explaining the differences!
Thank you sir, it was a great informative video. Now types of switches is clear to me.
this is the exact explanation i was looking for! thank you
wow just an amazing video bro , love from INDIA
Extremely helpful and easy to understand. Thank you.
Amazing stuff. Subscribed instantly. Thank you so much.
Wow! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Quality video, exactly what is needed
It helped me alot.Thankyou sir for such an amazing video.Hoping for more good videos.
This video I SUPER helpful. Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing it with us. Well explained
Perfectly clear, many thanks
Thank you, you explained it so brilliant.
Fentastic effort. Thank you from Tamilnadu.

Is the red rocker switch with 3 terminals spdt? You did not tested it. Does it have a light inside the red rocker switch?
13:39 Wouldn't you need a diode somewhere in this circuit to prevent the current from reaching both loads?
Question. With SPDT switch you said we can have 1 input and 2 output. Can I reverse it? Switching between 2 input and have 1 output?

This video went on for too long and I got bored … so I single poled my brain and switched off. 😂
you could have spared me the beeps
