I am looking the a chrome pullswitch with a metal chain rather than a
string. Obviously the chain needs to be isolated electrically. I bought
a chrome switch with a string, and a separate chain (sold on the same
shelf) from B&Q but the string cannot be replaced with the chain,
unless you are happy with a bit of visible string at the top. I looked
in the innards, and the string runs straight through the switching
mechanism and very near live parts, so I decided not to try and frig
it.
Apart from annoyance at B&Q for the grouping of these products, anyone
know where I can get a contemporary-looking switch ? All the google
ones seem to be Victorian, Crystal, have porcelain bases etc,
definitely not what I want.
Cheers,
Simon.

I have used and would recommend this company.
