PHILIPS Hue Dimmer Switch - Standard (UK) Switch Cover/ Blanking Plate/ Replacement

I just found one I didn’t know I had, there’s another 10mm Single just been listed… be quick!

Hi Chris, are you relisting your ebay ad?

Also forgive me if i missed it but what does the 5mm and 10mm options refer to? Is the 10mm for a standard switch and the 5mm for “flat plate” style switches?

Thanks,
Adam.

I’m on holiday for a week, I’ll be relisting after that.

5mm and 10mm refer to the depth of your existing light switch plate, not including the rocker.

Hello! I live in Norway and we have the same problem here. However our standard switch is 84x84mm. Do you have any premaid ones available?
Edit: another picture

The standard ones will fit, slightly bigger which doesn’t really matter, slightly smaller would be an issue.

The bigger issue would be the depth of the the existing switch plate and the distance between screws. Let me know what they and maybe a picture and I’ll see what can be done.

Chris

Ok I’ll check when I get of work =)
Ok so here are some pictures with measurements.
Looks like a 1,5cm depth, aprox 6cm between the two holes for screws.

I can only post one picture in a post as I am a new user apparently. Also I can only reply 3 times =(
Is there an email where I can send the pictures?

Ok so I double checked.
Its 60mm between the screws in the wall (same as UK I guess).
The plate itself is 84mmx84mm.
The depth of the switch (naked without the outer layer) is about 10mm.
With your solution I could still use the raw “naked” switch underneath the philip hue dimmer through the hole. A standard UK one should be good.
The depth of the plastic cover that goes onto the wall is about 11mm (a bit curved so difficult to measure) and goes out a bit further.
Here are some more pictures.
Recommendations?

Hello!
I did not hear back from the email I sent.
Is it possible to buy a standard UK one 10mm deep from you. I think it would work ok for most of my switches. I tried to find your listing on ebay but only found one that does not ship to Norway and is out of stock. I would really like to try your solution, as The Etsy backing plate does not let me control the switch under (otherwise works great). Do you still make them?

Regards Jim

Hi Chris. Are you still producing these. I need four for single switches and one for a triple switch. Would that be possible please?

Sure, I’m selling through eBay at the moment now though.
Do a search for Hue Remote uk cover, demand is outstripping my ability to make them currently but I’m working on that.
Regards
Chris

Hi Chris

Many thanks. I’ve ordered the last one in stock on eBay.
If possible could you let me know when you have more. I need 4 more of the single 10mm ones and two of the doubles if possible.

Many thanks

Mike

Hi Chris, are you still doing these at all? Tried ebay but said it had ended.

Cheers
Roy

Hi Chris. I’m also interested. Just missed out on ebay the other day - shouldn’t have hesitated haha. Will you have more soon?

Really love the idea and would like to purchase 2x single 10mm (one is definitely 10 mm not sure about the other and will double check before buying) and was wondering when they will come back in stock? Thanks again really great product

Later this evening, although not many - even with 4 printers I can only produce 16 a day!

Chris

Hi Chris,
Happy to buy direct to avoid ebay fees tried to message you that and they blocked me sending it lol :slight_smile:

Hi there. Are you still making these?

Certainly am! Not got all sizes in stock at the moment though:

Thanks. Do you know when you will have stock again? I need 6 doubles :grin:

Also do you have any pictures of the 0mm switches you do?

Thanks

Jonathan

These are fantastic, as soon as I know how many I need and you’re in stock I will order some.

I wonder if you have any suggestions for a similarly neat solution for an Ikea TRÅDFRI dimmer switch? They’re easy to pair with the a Hue system and I’m planning to use them in my very small hall as the Hue switch is overkill. Do you have the time/insensitive to design something?
