Customers say
Customers find the light switch to be of good quality with a lovely finish, and appreciate its excellent value for money. The switch is easy to install, with clear instructions and straightforward wiring, and fits perfectly in standard wall boxes. The functionality receives positive feedback, particularly with LED downlights, though opinions on dimming ability are mixed – while some praise its ability to control light levels from very dim to maximum, others report issues with the middle dim setting.

Great Quality light switch at a great price
I bought 6 of these switches to replace the old tatty white plastic ones in my flat, they are super easy to install took me just 30 minutes to install all 6 and they look great a real upgrade on the old ones. I was lucky enough to get them on sale so at £3.49 each an absolute bargain!

Better than the plastic sockets.
I always had issues with plastic sockets, and once I changed to this BG metal sockets, I havenât had issues with fuses blown out. This socket seems solid and quality especially after you install it. The sockets are what you expect and more in terms of functionality and speed. You can get the ones with the USB ports but I find them very slow. The price is also cheaper here than in stores. My one issue is that when working with any moisture (fillers, cement, skimming) the screws tend to rust very quickly and need to replaced. Hence 4 stars.

Does the job and easy to install
Got the BG Electrical Intelligent Dimmer Switch recently and love it! Super easy to install, looks great, and the dimming is really smooth. Works perfectly with my LED lightsâdefinitely a solid buy.

Great BG switching socket.
BG kit is really well made and made to last. Bought these as part of a full switches & sockets refurbishment and I am very pleased with them. The connector strips and Earthing point and very secure & robust (no issue terminating the wires).
The finish is great, nicely brushed and would appear to be robust (time will tell). Easy to fit with decent length screws (unlike some cheap imports I’ve seen).

Check your current wiring if replacing an existing switch.
Check your specific wiring before purchasing as there are a couple of different ways to wire these. Good and looks great on the wall. After less than a month and during decoration of the bathroom and hallway it became apparent that the Isolator Switch was sticking, requiring few off/on actions for it to work and it eventually failed completely. I am happy for Amazon to replace this item as other switches I have purchased from the same supplier continue to function.

BG Nexus 3 gand inteligent dimmer
Excellent Dimmer that does not require any setting/adjustment, there is a slight delay / build up at switch-on which reduces initial surge and guess gives a bit of extra reliabilty

Looks good
Replaced an ugly yellow aerial socket, looks great

Non ho ancora messo in funzione il pulsante, la valutazione che però posso anticipare riguarda la sua fattezza ed estetica.
il materiale è di buona qualità , la satinatura lo rende bello al tatto e visivamente si caratterizza come un prodotto originale “stile retrò” come piace a me.
sintesi: tornerò a commentarlo una volta che sarà operativo, per ora posso solo dire che è veramente bello.

Pour une alimentation de volet roulant, il est recommandé d’utiliser un interrupteur bipolaire et de le protéger par des fusibles. Malgré des recherches, je n’ai pas trouver d’appareils cumulant ces deux fonctions, dans un produit français. Chose que fait parfaitement bien cet interrupteur, par contre fusibles et boites de fixation sont plus difficiles à trouver, mais disponibles chez Amazon. la qualité est très bonne et le prix intéressant.

Esteticamente perfecto. Funcionalmente, si sabes leer sus especificaciones, también perfecto.
Cómo bien indica su descripción, este interruptor regulable, regula potencias entre 60w y 400w. Tiene un regulador interno con el que poder jugar para ajustar más la potencia, en caso de que le conectes potencias inferiores, pero no está pensado para conectar una bombilla led individual.
Normalmente las marcas informan mal sobre este dato, pero este no es el caso. Los que se quejan de que sus bombillas Led no se las regula, deberÃan mirar que potencia regula este interruptor (entre 60w y 400w) y que potencia tienen sus bombillas (si han cocentado 2 bombillas led, me temo que rondaran una potencia sobre 6/8w).
Para esos casos hay reguladores que indican que regulan potencias entre 5w y 75w.
Esas potencias que indica son las máximas, es decir, en mi caso he conectado una bombilla edison de 60w. He regulado el regulador interno al mÃnimo, y como se ve en el video, la regulación es PERFECTA. Puedo ir desde potencia máxima, hasta una potencia tan Ãnfima que sólo se ve el filamento rojo sin dar nada de luz, incluso si bajo más el regulador no tiene potencia ni para eso.
Si buscas un regulador para bombillas led, y lo que tienes son varios focos Led (downlight) que en total suman unos 30w/40w, te hará un trabajo decente, si piensas conectar bombillas Led, que sumen en total menos de 25w, te hará un trabajo deficiente aunque seguramente quedes contento,y si lo piensas usar para una o 2 bombillas que sumen 4/6w, directamente no te regulará nada.
Por cierto, si calculas esas potencias por lo que te diga la tienda, ten en cuenta que o la bombilla es de marca reconocida (philis, osram…), o todas las bombillas mienten. Yo tengo un medidor de potencia real de bombillas y las bombillas de aliexpress que compraba antes suelen tener la mitad de la potencia que anuncia el vendedor, lo aviso para el que quiera calcular que regulador necesita.
