Firstly Chris, any switch gear should either be a normal plate switch
outside the bathroom or a pull cord switch if it is to be used within the
room itself. Normal plate switches can arc over to damp hands, which is not
a very nice feeling.

That's already the situation of course.


The space above the lights will need to allow good ventilation though, as
these little lights can give off a good bit of heat if they're on for long
periods, and I normally tell folks to leave a good 75mm above them to a
solid ceiling for this very reason.

A 35 watt light will always give off 35 watts of heat won't it?
Presumably if one gets the 'forward reflecting IR' variety more of the
heat gets radiated down into the bathroom rather than left in the
void. Does anyone know if this really makes a lot of difference
