Frequently asked questions (updated weekly)

Will I need special cabling or re-wire my home?                                                       No, the switches and plug-points will simply replace your existing switch or plug-point. You do NOT need a neutral as previously anticipated. So replacing your existing light switch should take less than 5 minutes.

What range will be available?                                                                               Please check out the products page for the latest updates.                                                                                                           

Will they be available in my country?                                                              Probably, we intend to cater for the majority of the world market including 110V and 230V.

Will they work if there is no electricty?                                                                They will return to their previous state once electricity is restored.                           

Are there different sizes to match my country's wall box?                                         Yes there will be different sizes available on the launch, details of which will be given to wholesalers ahead of the launch.

Can I do it myself?                                                                                            Yes you could, if the law in your country allows it.

Is the switch available in different colours?                                                           Yes, each Revolution switch will have both a black and white toughened glass cover-plate to match your particular home. The Cu3e range is available in either black or white.

Are the lights remote controlled?                                                                         Yes, we have decided to launch with an RF remote included for the Revolution Range and  Cu3e Range. So control of lighting can be done from other rooms - without the need of "line-of-sight".

Is there a time-delay closing option?                                                                    Yes we will have a time delay switch available for order.

How many circuits of lighting can be controlled per switch?                                    They are initially available in 1,2 or 3 gang.                                                              A 1,2,3 and 4 gang keypad to control lighting modules will also be available.

What colour LED backlight is available?                                                                  Initially : Blue when on and amber when off for the Revolution Range                          Blue when off and blank when on in the CU3E range.

Are they going to be expensive?                                                                          No, they will be as affordable as possible without compromising quality and style. We are anticipating a retail price of just over R500 per switch for the revolution and just over R600 for the Cu3e range.

Why would I take all the existing switches and plug-points that I've already bought,     out of my home?                                                                                           Firstly the switches are touch sensitive, so wrestling with a rocker is a thing of the past. Secondly the switches have no moving parts and are therefore less susceptible to failure. And thirdly the style that the accessories will add to your home will be well worth the small investment.

Will you have power and dimmer options available?                                                 Yes, please check the specification sheets for each range to see the load capacities.
