Probably easier to use a three position grid plate with two switches and one neon indicator, not really sure if it'd be bright enough though, they also do filament and fluorescent indicators.
Well it would save you from being naughty and using earth as the not-live side of the neon.
It's against the Lightswitch Drilling Act 1907. You'd want more than 1 neon indicator for night lighting. And putting them at the base of a ceiling light would be better than the light switch.
MK Neon Locator its goes between a light switch and the wall and takes a crumb of elec from earth and live, not enough to trip the RCDs I hope if I have 20 of them? [george]
I assume from the "TUNGSTEN GLS LAMPS ONLY" you're supposed to wire the neons across the switch, rather than live to earth, so they only glow when the light is off ...
but a reviewer of this white neon locator from MK is says: "?????
4 out of 5 stars. Anonymous · 2 years ago Beware however that it is not suitable for use with low energy florescent type light bulbs although works ok with normal florescent tube type fitting s. "
ng edge dimmers because LEDs are not regulated, it seems.
I know thre's plenty of info on such things although some on here just don' t understand the differncies, most LEDs or rather the PSU driving the LED w ork better with trailing edge circuitry and most seem to use MOSFET rather than TRIACs. Using leading edge with traics gets more power disipated in ot her componets such as the diac and other componets and they 'blow' up which means replacing a working TRIAC with the same type won't change anything.
