 A Completely Wireless Light Switch Launched

A new entirely wireless remote control light switch (RTS 2020W) is announced by Retrotouch, the manufacturer of innovative lighting solutions and home automation products.

The Wireless 2 Way Touch light is simply fitted to your wall with concealed fixing screws, without the need for any live wires, and you get an additional light switch anywhere you wish to put one. Priced at £84.99. Just the thing for placing a light switch in your conservatory, porch, loft, or wherever you need a switch, but formerly thought to be tricky -without expensive re-wiring. The wireless switch can also be a great benefit for disabled people, who may find existing switches in their home difficult to reach. The 2 Way Wireless Touch switch needs to be paired with a wired Touch & Remote switch, making it work in the same way as a remote control, with a range of up to 20m.

The Wired Touch & Remote switches (priced from £41 each), are also easy-to-install – a DIY job that uses existing wiring, to create a remote-control switch in any room of the house.
