Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant screwless gold finish
  • Easy to install with clip-on design
  • Suitable for 2-way lighting setups
  • Backed by a 10-year manufacturer guarantee

Cons

  • Requires a 25mm minimum wall box depth
  • Must be earthed during installation
  • Gold finish may show fingerprints more than matte alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician or a competent DIYer. Ensure the power is isolated at the mains before beginning work. The switch fits into a standard 25mm deep back box; verify your existing box depth before purchase. As this unit requires earthing, ensure the earth wire is properly connected to the terminal on the switch backplate. For maintenance, keep the faceplate looking new by cleaning with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive chemical cleaners or polishes, as these can damage the gold finish.
