Q1: What is the RETOUCH THINS+ S011 switch used for?
A: The RETOUCH THINS+ S011 is a 16A 1 Gang 1 Way wall switch used to control a single lighting circuit or standard fan from one switch location. Its 16A rating handles higher electrical loads than standard 10A switches, making it ideal for multiple LED downlights.
Q2: What colors are available for the RETOUCH THINS+ S011 switch?
A: The RETOUCH THINS+ S011 comes in four finishes: Matte White (S011W), Ecru (S011SW), Matte Grey (S011GY), and Tempered Glass Graphite Grey (S011GG).
Q3: What is the difference between a 16A switch like S011 and a standard 10A light switch?
A: A 16A switch supports up to 16 Amperes of current at 250V AC, whereas a standard 10A switch caps at 10 Amperes. The higher 16A capacity reduces contact wear from LED driver inrush currents and provides greater durability.
Q4: Does the RETOUCH THINS+ S011 fit standard Malaysian wall switch boxes?
A: Yes, the RETOUCH THINS+ S011 is designed to fit standard Malaysian square concealed and surface mounting boxes (86mm x 86mm), allowing easy replacement of existing switches without hacking the wall.
Q5: Are RETOUCH THINS+ matte switches anti-fingerprint?
A: Yes, the Matte White (S011W), Ecru (S011SW), and Matte Grey (S011GY) variants use soft-touch UV skin coating designed to resist fingerprints, smudges, and daily surface wear.
Q6: Can I use the RETOUCH THINS+ 16A S011 switch for a water heater or air conditioner?
A: No. For high-power appliances like water heaters or air conditioners in Malaysia, you should use a 20A or 45A Double-Pole switch (such as the RETOUCH THINS+ S20A series) which isolates both Live and Neutral wires.
Q7: Where can I buy RETOUCH THINS+ switches in Malaysia?
A: RETOUCH THINS+ switches (S011 series) are available at authorized electrical supply stores, lighting showrooms across KL, Selangor, Penang, and Johor, as well as official RETOUCH flagship stores on Shopee and Lazada Malaysia.
