Aha !

I asked on this forum a couple of weeks ago for a similar type of thing for access to my A/V cabinet - any details, phone number, website for where I can get one of these switches ?

Thanks !

A local retailer (David Harrisons) here sells proximity switches that look
like a standard single gang blanking plate, there is a small led i think
which is just about visible.

Salesman also told me you could fit it behind, say a bathroom tile and it
would still work.

Any good?
