Hi. Can anyone tell me where I can buy a remote control to operate my pool lights instead of using toggle switch in box?. Lights are 12 volt.
You can buy it at the internet - http://www.coco-technology.com/en/applications/solutions/multiway-switching/
Thank you robber
We bought ours from Leroy Merlins, you can use each one for three things - especially good at Christmas for tree lights and other lights in and out of the house - we control our outside lights from inside.
We rarely turn our pool lights on as the switch is on the other side of the pool and awkward to access in the dark. Can someone explain how the rc works as there is no plug and socket. Does it require a professional electrician to install it? Thanks

Its an electronic switch ( receiver ) somewhere in the power line to whatever device or devices you want to control , they take their operating power directly from the mains or from an internal battery . The switch is activated by a remote ( transmitter ) similar to the remote control unit you use for your TV but without all the functions , normally on/off although they can incorporate a dimmer also .
Its a DIY job once you locate the power line and a suitable dry place to install it , you simply break the power line and wire the switch into it either 1 cable in and 1 out or it could be double pole which would be safer as it would be sure to break the live then it would be 2 in and 2 out .
