Technical Superiority & Performance Metrics

Beneath its striking exterior lies exceptional engineering precision built to withstand everyday operational demands.

• Electrical Rating: Designed for standard Malaysian power grids, it operates seamlessly at 16AX and 250V AC (50/60Hz), offering high inductive load capability suitable for modern LED lighting arrays, traditional fluorescent fixtures, and standard incandescent lamps.
• Switch Function: Configured as a 1-Pole 2-Way Switch (commonly known as a two-way or staircase switch), allowing you to control a single lighting circuit from two separate physical locations—ideal for stairwells, long hallways, master bedrooms, and multi-entrance living spaces.
• Gangs & Rockers: Features a single module design (1 Gang, 1 Rocker) engineered for smooth, silent, and tactile feedback on every press.
