Simply - views and sources for pull cord switches that are silent, or
near silent please?

Thanks

At the Ideal Home show at the beginning of the year there was a
company (sorry don't have the details) exhibiting an RF extension
switch to convert a one-way switch to two-way operation. Basically you
replaced a single switch with a radio controled one and then had a
little battery powered transmitter that looked like a second switch
for two-way operation. The idea was that this could be mounted next to
a bed without having to put in all the wiring. Being battery operated
it could be used in the bathroom as an alternative to a pull switch.

To be really tounge in cheek mount another about 12" from the end of
the bath so you can turn the lights on and off while wallowing in
bubbles. If nothing else it would be interesing to see if a
purchaser's surveyor made any comment when you came to sell ;-)
