which switches do you use?

Post by binkiem »

When using micromodules like the TMD4, you need to use push buttons. Buttons which, after the push, return to zero state. Normaly a home installation doesn't have those switches. I have the following questions:
- what kind of (built-in) switches are on the market? Are there non-white colours to? e.g. off-white
- The TMD4 can handle 4 switches. Are there built-in switches who has 4 pushbuttons?

I looked at http://www.marmitek.com/bigimages/8937.gif but i would like to have a switch which can replace the normal built-in lightswitch.
The Marmitek LW11 (http://www.marmitek.com/nl/catalogus/pr ... product=31) can only handle one light.

Thanx

All major brands offer momentary switches for their system. Personally I wouldn't (and didn't) go for the Marmitek switches, simply because they're butt-ugly and because they stick out too much. I have just dropped in a couple of Xanura micro modules and connected them to the existing switches. The dimmers require you to replace your switches with momentary switches though.
