We also have stock available from our own warehouse facility. **Q: Is this switch suitable for use in car for a 12v accessory? i.e. to connect a lead with red wire for power and black for negative.** A: Hi, I’m not an electrician so you may need to check, given that this switch operates as a simple circuit breaker; if you were to install it online into a 12v system, it should work, I would have thought that there are bespoke switches from Halfords etc that would look better? Sorry if this isn’t helpful. **Q: Would this be suitable for some fairy lights with a thin 2-wire lead?** A: Yes, I used it for fairy lights. Works a treat. Saves unplugging all the time to turn off at night. **Q: Could I wire this into a laptop charger cable?** A: I am not an electrician but I think that depending on which end of the charger; ie the 240/110v side or the thinner cable on the other end would make a difference. I would not wire this at the thicker 240/110v side as this item is rated for lighting (lamp) therefore a lower current. Just pulling the charging lead out of the laptop end would suffice? Sorry I can’t be more helpful ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Switch.. *by B***O on 1 January 2026* This switch is as advertised and blends well if the connecting flex is of a golden colour.
