USB from light switch
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.32 PM
Hi, Not sure if this is possible but I am installing tablets on the wall for home automation. Only problem is keeping them charged. They are all near light switched and I am wondering if its possible to spur from the wiring in the socket to something like this-- https://uk.rs-online.com/mobile/p/audio-video-faceplates/1242519/ or this https://www.screwfix.com/p/lap-usb-charger-grid-module-black/686cc#product_additional_details_container Searched around the Internet and can't find much on it. I'm hoping that becuase the tablets don't draw much power they would be OK to come off of the light switch. Thanks =)
