FAQ
-
How does a card switch work?
Inserting a card into the slot completes the circuit and turns on power to the room's non-essential sockets and lighting; removing it cuts power after a short delay.
-
Can I install this myself?
A like-for-like replacement is straightforward once power is off. New installations need an electrician.
-
Does it work with any key card?
Yes, any standard plastic card of the right size — no special chip needed.
-
Does the Wine Gold finish match other AvatarOn devices?
Yes, it matches AvatarOn Wine Gold switches and sockets.
