Screwfix time switches
Anyone got or used one of the "Ranger 3" electronic timeswitches from
Screwfix, code 12544 (p229 of cat #75). Its the one that fits next to a
normal socket or wall switch plate.
My question is suitability for use with CFL loads, i.e. the
arrangements or otherwise for a neutral connection.
Sometimes such devices are marked as not suitable for CFL loads as they
rely on a dribble of current on the switched live to power themselves.
Same question for a plug-in one, 13481, above on same page.
Screwfix should take a leaf out of Farnell's book and put links to data
sheets / instructions etc for their products. The catalogue and website
descriptions are (of necessity) somewhat short.
Cheers
