Aodoka Outdoor Switch Single Weatherproof (1Gang 10A IP66)

Great piece of kit, easy to use and install even for a novice like me.

If I flip the switch, the lights go out, if I flip it the other way, they come back on, what's not to like.

Wiring: COM is used for the line feed. The L1 & L2 are used to feed the items to be switched on by operation of the switch.Face Plate Gasket: Fiddly to get to stay in position while tightening the face plate, it took me 3 attempts!Glands: There are NO glands or grommets in this so that means an extra purchase to ensure the switch is waterproof.It took me about 15 minutes to replace my existing switch so not a major job but I’m disappointed that I need to purchase extra items to maintain the IP66 status. If I could have found the rocker switch module that fits inside the unit I would have bought one of those instead!

Good

Great idea having such a large, easily used light switch. I fitted it in the garage to replace an old metal, slightly rusted original switch. Very happy with this.

For use in my new combi greenhouse/shed. Works a treat, seems solid quality and works with a nice, positive on-off action. Also, being quite large, is easy to find and use in the dark!

The switch is exactly what's needed for outside lighting and is very easy to use and fit. One little point - the wiring instructions don't exactly fit the UK system but an electrician friend put me right. The black or blue wire goes to L1 and the red or brown wire goes to COM. There is no need for an earth as the whole unit is plastic.

I'm not an switch expert but I have fitted a good few over the years and this was the easiest to install and best designed that I've come across.
