wi-fi switches

[Avo Mk8]

The Lightwave switches come with a spacer/bezel, which the faceplate sits in, so doesn't look bad. The spacer gives an extra 7mm clearance. The screw terminals are accessed from the top of the switch, and where the cables enter is stepped away from the back. There is space to run cables around the sides of the central module if you have enough length. I've just measured one, and using the spacer, the module itself protrudes just 18mm into the back box.

How about the quinetic wifi units, the receiver can go in the light fitting, above the ceiling and then the switch don't need a back box

Also the Quinetic switches that are wired in are 17mm deep, and they say can be fitted in a 25mm back box!

Ah that's a new one on me, of course then it would!

But the Qinetic WiFi Receiver seems to need a neutral anyway...which isn't available.

It will be at the light fitting, thats the point of them.

Sorry, LightwaveRF. The newer series. And a correction, they are more like 17mm deep with the supplied bezel.
