I can't see them on diy.com.
I bought some about 4 weeks ago.
I have attached a picture (bad bad bad).

No, not at all! The picture is great. As a designer, I always have
to see things visually before I can resolve what's in me 'ead!

They look like just the ticket, I can stuff all of these inside a wall
mounted box and keep the remotes handy... that'd impress the hordes of
girls dressed in nothing but heels! The product at
http://tinyurl.com/dvsln looks good but I'd like to compare it with the
B&Q one that you suggested! Can you give me the product name and/or
model No.s of the wireless switch kit and the ABS housing you have
mentioned? That way I can ring my (not so) nearest B&Q and hopefully
avoid a wasted trip... if that is where you bought/saw them?

Also, I'm still unsure how I could configure the set up so that the deck
lights and step lights are switched separately... if I employ your
method of 3 deck lights per transformer, with the step lights added to
one of these, and then plug these transformers into 2 of the 3 wireless
sockets, I would end up with an odd split! I could plug a 2-way adaptor
into 1 of the wireless sockets and then 2 transformers (for the deck
lights) into this... or would that be verging on the 'unsafe'?

I can't see that either.
Is an ABS box just like the external boxes used for junctions, etc.
There are inlet and outlet points at the bottom, the rest is sealed.
I can't see why frost should have any effect.

Again, I'd like to see it before making a decision... I'm tempted to nip
down to B&Q now for a butchers!


The halogen transformer was IP54 rated IIRC so it can live outside if you
want.


If there's room in the box, I'd prefer to hide it!
