Re: Led lights

["John Nye" <lists@xxxxxxx>]

Justin,

You are a star!!!

Just been quietly trying this out and it works - just need SWMBO to wake up
in the middle of the night and go to the ensuite & lights will go from
off to on! (Now what can I buy next ....).

And thanks everyone for your suggestions.

John

You could try a TM12U as these don't have current sensing.
