BG Electrical 842-01 Double Light Switch, White Moulded, 2-Way, 16AX

I chose this switch because of the 'rounded off' look and the small size of the rockers themselves. That's down to personal preference of course, but I like how it looks on the wall now it's fitted. It was a simple replacement job so I didn't need the instructions, just copied the wiring from the old switch. Useful tip if you're replacing an existing switch: take a photo on your phone of the wiring on the old switch, makes life much easier when wiring up the new one. The fittings inside the switch are metal where it's needed and decent quality plastic where it's not. The screws that hold the wires are easy to access and feel secure once tightened. It came with four mounting screws, long and short, one pair of which should suit pretty much any wall box. The switch action feels clean and positive. It came with tiny covers to hide the screw heads when fitted, a nice touch which makes a big improvement to the aesthetics when compared with other switches in the house.

I bought this BG Electrical double light switch to replace my old one that was broken. It is a 2-way switch that can control two lights from one location. It has a white moulded design that is sleek and slim, with softly rounded corners and gently curved rockers. It has angled in-line colour-coded captive screw terminals that make it easy to install and connect the wires. It has good performance and quality, and it comes with a 30-year guarantee from the manufacturer. Pros: -White moulded design -2-way switch -Easy installation and connection -Good performance and quality -30-year guarantee Cons: -No smart or voice control -No dimming or timing function -No backlight or indicator Reasons to buy: -If you want a double light switch that is reliable and easy to use -If you need a 2-way switch that can control two lights from one location -If you are looking for a white moulded design that is sleek and slim Reasons to avoid: -If you prefer a smart or voice-controlled light switch -If you need a dimming or timing function for your lights -If you want a backlight or indicator for your switch

This was a great value double switch, the same wiring location as my current switch so was literally 5 minute job to isolate power and move the wires one by one. Nice positive click to the switch and far better than the one it replaced in out 15 year old house. The kit comes with 2 screws and 6 screw cover plastic lugs which is a very nice touch. Negative and stopped it getting 5 star on install, the screws are just not long enough - i used my existing screws but not ideal really when you get a kit if you fitting in a brand new location.

⚙️ The BG Nexus 800 double light switch has a modern, round-edged design with matching screw caps that give it a clean, sleek appearance. The material feels durable and resists scratches, fading, and discolouration, which helps it maintain its look over time. I found the 2-way functionality useful, and this was a direct replacement for a failed double switch. It installs easily with captive screws, which prevent losing screws during the wiring process. The switch also fits well into a shallow back box, but I did notice that the retaining screws are shorter to match the design. ⚙️ The screw cover caps add a polished, professional look, and I like that the pack includes some spares. If your back box isn’t flush with the surface, the shorter screws might be a problem, as they don’t provide as much depth. However, this wasn’t an issue for me since my back box was level. Overall, the switch has been reliable so far and provides great value for money, especially considering its style and the easy installation. ✔️

All fine, circuit diagram was a bit confusing.. but quick google helped..

Easy to install, look nice and are well made. Work well.

J'ai 3 commandé des doubles interrupteurs, et j'ai reçu 6 simples va et vient! Cela n'a rien à voir et je dois commander autre chose. A suivre pour la qualité du produit si je le reçoit un jour

It is 10 watts not 20 watts as written on the advertisement

Se instaló hace tiempo y funciona perfectamente.
