Default A new thing to worry about

Powering Your Switch
Connect the supplied AC adapter to 12VDC/100mA
on the back of the switch. Then, plug the other end of the
adapter into a standard AC outlet. The power turns on.

Note: To avoid injury, do not connect the adapter to a
ceiling outlet.


:-) The PSU for our house alarm lives in an outlet on the underside of
the basement stairs - to secure it they backed off the outlet cover screw
a little and then tied it in place....

Why the person who installed the outlet didn't put it on the side of the
stairs, I don't know - it's not like there isn't plenty of room.

Maybe they didn't want it where things could be dropped on it? Or
the power cord on their grow light was too short?
