I don't know if everyone here has rushed out to buy these UK-style
wall switches from Laser Business Systems yet, but I bought one the
other day (the dimmer style).
Price is about thirty quid, plus the usual P&P. It fitted straight
into my wall box (remember to turn the mains power off first,
kiddies). However, a couple of issues:
o The white snap-on plastic cover (which hides the house/unit
codes) is a real pain to get off. Be careful, otherwise you'll
break the clips.
o The screws supplied are too long - at least, for my wall box.
I presume that they're supplied as a 'free extra' - my old
obviously fitted fine. The switch itself is a little bit
thicker than the traditional switch, so I presume that's why
they're included.
o The unit makes a slight buzzing noise when on, and gets warm
(not too warm) to the touch when in anything but off.
First impressions: pretty good.
Regards
Paul
