Quality of electrical fittings.

And it has better electrical terminals than the MK. I have fitted thousands of them.

Are they angled like the MK ones, so you can do up the screws more easily?

At that price I may well get a couple in to try out. Thanks.

They are not angled.

That reminds me of an incident someone told on here 20+ years ago. I can't remember who it was, but he arrives home to find wife has a juicy black eye. Starts to get even more concerned when she is rather reluctant to explain what happened, but eventually the cause comes to light.

Some weeks beforehand, wife picked up a large replacement wooden acorn to replace the feeble plastic one on the pull cord. She had been nagging for a while for him to fit it, and eventually he did so the night before. That morning, clearing up the bathroom after the family had gone through it, she shook out a bathtowel. It caught the large new wooden acorn and smacked it into her eye...

There were a couple of large pottery and wood acorns on the light pulls when I moved in here. Their weight often stopped the cord springing back up, which caused the next user to yank harder on the cord because it didn't work. After both cords snapped, I replaced them with a bog-standard MK replacement cord and acorn.

Right, thanks for this. I could have sworn the brand I bought was MK, and I did get it from pee & spew. I shall not make that mistake again.

Thanks again.

I'd need a regular supply and the switch also turns on a ventilation fan, so I'd need lots of candls so that the risng heat turned the fan's blades
