RE: Momentary Light Switches?



Hi Paul,

Those are nice switches, how pricey are we talking? You wouldn't happen
to know of an on-line retailer for them? I live in Northern Ireland and
they don't have any distributors over here :(

The alternative is the MK grid switches, but they don't seem to come in
the same lovely brushed metal finish of the Wandsworth ones.

38 LD11s! Wow! My first one arrived today, hopefully I'll get a chance
to hook it up over the weekend to test the concept in my house. I reckon
its going to take me around 12 LD11s to wire up all my groups of
downlights (when I get them!). Haven't decided on what to do for the
lighting in the bedrooms yet, probably more LD11s with ordinary lights.

This is a very impressive group! Thanks to everyone who answered!

Steve
