RE: Bathroom sensor switch

["Ward, David" <David.Ward@xxxxxxx>]

Martin,

Ian Bird was working on a 6 switch keyboard using a QPROX device a
while
back
The Qprox devices would be fine for bathroom use (They were initally
designed to turn water on and off just by touching the tap)
It depends how comfortable you are with electronics, but it'd be very
simple
to implement power swiching via relay.

I'm toying with the idea of mounting some under the edge of the bath so
as
to give 'invisible' touch switch control of music volume and selection
-
still a dream at the moment though 

Dave

Paul G,

Just been nosing around your online bathroom!!!

Did you buy the Sensor switch module or the sensor pad plus multiway 
controller?
>From picture it looks like the latter, but I just wanted to check...
Has it been working reliably? Is it easy for untrained visitors??

Did you look at the secret switch (the one with the antenna)?

I would need to switch two independent lights and the tft screen and three
sets of sensor + controller is looking expensive, however they don't seem
to recommend the Sensor switch in a bathroom.

Cheers,

Martin
