RE: Re: Replacement light switches

["Dave McLaughlin" <dave_mclaughlin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Mal,



The issue I have is that the walls and ceiling are all solid concrete under
the thin rendering. This is an apartment block and the walls are load
bearing with re-bar so this means there is no space above the light
fittings
themselves.



I'll have a look at the modules and see if there is space. It might be that
I use them and swap out the existing switch unit for a simple push button
switch panel.



Dave.

I use Fibaro Z-Wave modules.

The factory default is push-button operation, so you do have to configure
them into bi-stable mode before they will work properly with a regular wall
switch.

I fit them behind the ceiling rose rather than the switch to avoid any
neutral wire issues.
