light switch location
6 years ago
We are having a two storey extension built and can’t decide where the light switch should go in the new bedroom. We’d like a wardrobe in the location I’ve marked in red so I guess the light switch has to go after the door on the right hand wall as you walk in? Is that the most logical in your opinion? Many thanks for you help!

Wireless light switches
Comments (6)Hi Lucy,things have moved on loads over the last few years . We have just started using a system from Ener-j . Their dimmer modules are very compact and fit behind the light fitting . They work off a wireless/battery less switch which can be placed anywhere . The app they have is one of the best I have seen .For a mid range product these are very cost effective. They can also be intergrated with Alexa and google home . If you need any more info please give me a call , Michael , 07527405712...See Morelight switches and sockets - anyone else ok with white
Comments (22)We are having a mixture. Brushed steel in the kitchen to go with the appliances, as they are quite visible at worktop height or in the sides of the island. White flat plate in the hall and drawing room. White plastic upstairs. I agree that it’s better to get white plastic from a reputable supplier which won’t go wrong, than a cheap metal socket or switch which looks the part but will give up within a year, or be a nightmare to fit. Also bear in mind the flat plate ones require a deeper back box (35mm) so if you already have standard 25mm ones you won’t have the flat plate option....See Morelight switches for downstairs wc inside or outside wc?
Comments (17)Motion sensors have a minimum energy consumption, depending on the type of motion sensor some of them may use about a watt of energy on standby mode (23 hours a day) and 5 watts on active mode (about an hour a day), so they are energy efficient if they are installed in medium-to-low traffic rooms, like closest, bathrooms, storage rooms, etc.. I would not suggest to use it for a heavy traffic room like the living room. Since the question here was referring to a bathroom in my opinion this is a viable option....See MoreKitchen - where to put light switch
Comments (4)The switch can go anyway for bluetooth (even in a cupboard) as long as there’s power to the light. They then need pairing. You can have an App on your phone....See More- 6 years ago
