- Join me on my quest, installing a Quinetic wireless receiver switch & MK style wireless light switch to easily add 2 way switching to this property !
This is NOT a how-to video, and you do so at your own risk, if in doubt consult a qualified electrician !

Cheers mate thanks for the shout out I really appreciate it you will not regret buying that table it’s a proper knicker dropper
If it just makes me put all my tools down in one place rather than all over the gaff, I’ll be happy
Honestly the table is the nuts! I’ve noticed had mine as I changed vans a few months ago abs chucked mine in storage at my parents in their shed due to lockdowns and them being vulnerable I haven’t been round to get it and could so do with it! I’ve contemplated buying another to be fair!
So many uses and especially I’ve found when doing garden lighting or outside work, Chuck all your tools fixing trays etc in one place and you’re not tripping over it etc👌🏻
Nice to see the subs going up mate, decent channel those Quinetic switches are the bomb 👌🏻
@@JayTheSparky that’s the first thing I used mine for this week ! Outside work all my bits on there
@@Cablesmith It’s class for that! Missing mine 🤣
The hardest part is separating the 2 parts from new. They actually come apart easily but it feels like something could break. My one failed after 18 months but took it back to TLC and they gave me a new one no problem.
Yea you’re spot on, they do feel like they’re going to snap. Remember being wary at first
Well put together video mate. Keep all the videos coming very interesting. Always watching.
Thankyou mate, appreciate it, I really do👌🏼
This product is amazing. Loving your videos mate. Keep them coming. Great to see you rocking the new hat.
It’s really is, life saver at times too for some clients ! Thanks for watching. Bud
🤣
Nice informative video cheers ~ what a great product it’s so versatile ~ amazing piece of kit 👍🏻
They really are versatile, and can be used for many other realllllyyyy useful
Things. Thanks for watching
That just reminded me...I have one of those benches still in the box somewhere..must have had it for three years !!
Get it found mate ! It’s great 😀
Wonderful channel
Thankyou my mate 👌🏼
love your snickers top
Me too ! 😃 thanks
Great videos so close to 1000 subs well done buddy 👍👍👍
Thanks mate ! Appreciate it bud 👌🏼👊🏼
Great video 😎
Thanks Richard 👌🏼
Can’t wait to find a use for a Quinetic switch or two
Haha I know the feeling ! I love using them 😀 feels like magic 🪄
Nice gear getting close to 1K bud told you once you hit that mark your hard work will pay off on the CZcams channel. Some electricians have stopped using the 25mm I would prefer those to be in a 35mm box the more strain on the wires in the back of the box the greater the very small risk of strain on terminations and slow loosening over time, together with thermal and moisture expansion and contraction. No torquing switch connections- in US now torquing of all socket and switch connection is required.
Your right mate, I didn’t even expect over 100 subs tbh.
Yea I use 35mm most of the time myself too, depending how many cables enter the box.
Thanks for watching
Also nice to know about the USA box calculations, interesting
Nice description mate. I've fitted a few Quinetics over the last year or so too. It's good stuff. Done a few Wise Boxes as well, which are cool for outside lights etc. I don't think you're that far from me mate - I'm in Alty. I'm trying to become the oldest CZcams electrician 😉👍
Thanks mate, I’ll have a look into the wise boxes. Not far at all, done a few jobs over in alty myself. As for oldest, I think Dave savery has you defeated on that one the old codger 😝😂
@@Cablesmith I thought he was younger than me, but I'll take that 🤣 Wise Box are from Mr. Electric I think. Good for long gardens coz the RF range goes to like 200m and you can get multi channel set-ups.
@@abcelectric he might be, I just wanted to call him old and hope he somehow stumbles upon these comments 🤣
@@Cablesmith 🤣🤣🤣
Top video! I prefer the keter table over the mccallister, don't tell Wills though 😂😂
😂😂 is Keter even a good brand ? 🤷🏻♂️ never heard of it tbh. Thanks for watching
They make half decent garden furniture 😂
@@sparky9282 honestly thought you were having me on then, had to go on google and check 😩😂 looks like that’s all they make too, apart from one random workbench which is quite hard to find lately. Wonder if they sold the design to Mac Alistair?
Hi mate , another great video. Is this a new range that quinetic do?
Thank you, appreciate your support ! And I’m not sure how long it’s been around, I’ve known of it for a good few months now but never used it. Although I’ve only knows of Quinetic all together for about 12 months.
Can this switch be used if you want a third switch. I have one switch at the bottom and one at the top of the stairs but want another siwtch next to the bedroom door.
Yes but you may have to replace the existing 2 for quinetic also.
Great product - never knew this version of the Quinetic range existed. So easy to retrofit which I suppose is the idea. The shade of the Quinetic upstairs switch is slightly different to the MK plate and switch. Is there a way to match those?
Yep, I’d heard about them but never needed one until now, really good product. As for the colour, I doubt there will be a way to match exactly but I just looked back on the video to check, and it wasn’t anywhere near that noticeable in real life, it could easily never be noticed in person. I think the gopro has picked up the difference a lot more than it looked.
Thanks for watching
Any idea how the powered switch side works internally if it does not need a neutral? I guess it has a battery that only charges when it is powered on? I am not an electrician so I have no idea! The simple switch side is kinetic and does not need a battery - that is obvious.
@@sidremey hi there the switch is good for 200,000 times on/off
@@sidremey If I was to say I knew I’d be lying, I know some smart switches require you to install come kind of capacitor across the live & neutral at the light for it to work, if there isn’t a neutral at the switch. But nope, no idea.
Bought one last weekend, dont know how i managed without one. Note to anyone who does buy one though. Make sure the clamps are in it before the you leave the shop.
Used mine for the first time yesterday and love it !
Thanks for watching
I’ve got a customer that wants to use a quinetic switch to operate garden lights from his shed offfice, but he also wants to be able to switch them with his existing ‘old fashioned’ switch in his kitchen.. does anyone know if this is possible? Tried contacting quinetic directly but no joy.
What do you mean by old fashioned?
How do you wire a 2 way 2 gang quinetic switch please?
There’s many ways of using the quinetic gear. It’s all situation specific so I couldn’t really tell you. Sorry mate
Love the channel mate, what cutters you using, find them any good?
thank mate, appreciate it !
And I use the CK combi cutters with the screw sheers and 1.5/2.5 stripper. Absolutely love them and wouldn’t use anything else. Been using them for about 6 years now
@@Cablesmith sweet thanks mate, I’ve got the cutters without the stripper was thinking of giving them a go
@@benr11160 yea they do a few kinds I think these are called combi cutter 3
Makes second fixing a lot quicker too. The middle bit folds the cores in half perfectly.
@@Cablesmith thanks a
Lot mate I’ll give them a go
No ones got more tools than wills mate, his tool bag must weigh a ton
Bags* 😀 your right tho ! he’s got a serious addiction
Are the quinetuc switches allow you to dim the lights?
These ones I used no, but they do have a dimmable version yes
@@Cablesmith thanks for the reply. Love the content
@@Mandolorian9379 no problem, and thanks mate 👌🏼
Red bench better than blue bench ? You must be a United fan eh ?
😉 UNITED ! UNITED !
I came for the Quinetic switches video not the table…
Title of the video, you can’t have one without the other 😂
Got another Quinetic video coming soon
Sorry matey intro tooooo long and we are in England not yank land were everyone starts with a question, Not a greeting , Meaning what’s up guys 🤨😤
Haha sorry mate ! Can’t please everyone 😀
Tbf I always greet people with mainly “alright mate, what’s going on ?” On a daily basis 👌🏼 or the short form, “what’s up”
thanks for watching mate
Although I am going to shorten the intro in future, it’s already in the pipeline because I’ve noticed it’s a bit much already 👌🏼
