Another data point. I had one semi D.O.A. 
No connectivity up front with switch on - unless the screw tab was wiggled then
it was intermittent. It was replaced under warranty. The replacement has been
flawless for over a year now.

I used them in three RVs over the last ~22 years.  Never had a failure.

I use them for things like:
- Boost Pump
- Landing and Nav/Strobes
- Pitot heat

I use the Tyco pull breakers for stuff that is not controlled with a switch, like:
- Avionics
- Alternator voltage regulator
- Trim servos
- Autopilot servos
