RE: Re: "new" X10 MT10 Bedroom Controller...

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Basically we stopped carrying them as a stock item because they *WON'T* fit
in a standard depth UK light switch position and even though we did at the
time make this clear we also had a significant number of grumbles about
this
... They need a deep back box (oh, and a neutral feed too). I actually have
a few here at home mounted in dry lining boxes with the back removed to get
a bit more depth.
