{"product_id":"1-gang-2-way-light-switch-bright-teal","title":"1 Gang 2 Way Light Switch - Bright Teal","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eBright teal is a bold thing to put on a wall, and this switch carries it off with a screwless front that sits flush and unbroken, with no fixing heads to interrupt the colour. The rocker itself is set into a chrome insert, so there is a small glint of brightness against the blue when you catch it in daylight. It is rated 10AX for household lighting circuits, and two way switching means it can be paired with a second switch so one light answers from either end of a room, a landing or a stairway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe reach for colour like this where a plain white plate would look apologetic: a child's bedroom, a boot room, a hallway painted in something deep, a kitchen with painted cupboard fronts to match. The plate is 88mm square, the usual footprint for a single switch, so it takes the place of a plate already on the wall without redecorating around it. It suits anyone who wants the small hardware to be deliberate rather than ignored, and we find one strong plate in a room reads better than several scattered about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plate is moulded in polycarbonate, which holds a solid colour far better than paint on metal and will not chip at the edges if a vacuum handle catches it. It is double insulated, and made for dry indoor rooms on a household lighting supply, so it is not one for a bathroom zone or an unheated outbuilding. To clean it, wipe with a cloth wrung out in warm water and dry it off; keep solvents, kitchen sprays and cream cleaners away, as they will haze the gloss. It carries a ten year warranty. If you like the teal but want it quieter, keep it to a single wall and let the rest of the switching stay plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBright Teal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSecond Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChrome\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType of Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.07KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBack Box Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterials Used\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate, Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax.
