You decided to change the light switch in your apartment and bought a new one. But when they got down to work on the replacement, they found that the device you bought was not
suitable. This happens when you do not know how to choose this device correctly. To buy exactly the device you need, follow these simple tips.
- See what the place where the old switch was installed looks like. If there is a recess, then you need a flush-mounted device. If there is no recess, then this means that you should purchase a light switch that is mounted outside the wall.
- Pay attention to what kind of chandelier you have. If it has one light bulb, or several with a parallel connection, then purchase a switch with one key. If the lamp has a large number of bulbs and two or three channels, then you need a device with the appropriate number of keys.
To choose the right device, it is enough to follow these twoadvice. But our stores have a huge range of light switches:
- touch light switch;
- with indicator;
- switches with built-in light control;
- remote light switch;
- acoustic switch.
What are their features? The touch light switch does not require pressing it, just a light touch is enough.
Remote switch allows you to control the lighting of the room using the remote control. These models have a built-in microprocessor. You can not only turn the light on and off, but also set a specific time to activate the lighting device. If you need to "dim" the light, you can use the special program built into this switch.
A device with an indicator is useful for those who do not want to search in the dark, by touch, for a light switch. A built-in indicator that glows in the dark will alwaysshow its location.
Devices presented in stores with a built-in brightness control give you the opportunity to independently adjust the intensity of lighting. But
acoustic switches "listen" when the command to turn on or off is given by voice or clap.
The choice of the model of this device depends only on your wishes. The price of a light switch depends on its capabilities, design and manufacturer. The simplest devicecosts no more than fifty rubles, and for those who love everything exclusive and original, you can pick up some more expensive.
You can buy light switches in any specialized store or order them on websites on the Internet. Do not buy fakes, always read the accompanying information on the device and pay attention to where it was made. This will save you from breaking the switch. If you do not have the proper education, do not install an electrical appliance yourself. After all, this can lead to injury by electric shock, and not always it ends safely. It is best to consult a qualified electrician for help.
