Hager(Ashley) v Click (Scolmore)

[GingerNinja]

Hi,

I'm new to this so please be nice.

I currently use lots of Hager boards and their Sollysta (new Ashley) switches & sockets.

I'm considering changing to Click switches and sockets as I've heard very good things about them and they'll save me a few

Don't know about the CUs yet either, but I quite like their accessories. Seem to be better made - styled a bit like MK, not quite as pricey.

edit: Actually now I remember, last week installed a Click cooker switch and found the earth terminals attached to a common bar bent easily out of place which I wasn't so chuffed about.

I've used click mode for a while now and have only had a problem with the 50A shower pull switch (the round one).. the only other minor quibble is the cooker switch switches (ORANGE!!!)

Thanks guy's, no-one tried the CU's then ?

I'll get one and see what I think.

Let us know how it goes (with pictures please)

I've just switched to using Hager wiring accessories. I got quite a good deal on them and I find them easy to wire in. I especially like the loop in for neutrals in the switches.

Thanks, I like the new Hager stuff too. Just wanted some thoughts on the Scolmore stuff. I've ordered some now so should be in on Wednesday.

Hi Just to let you know the Click Mode Range does also have a cooker switch option with white rockers, If you want any further imformation please PM me.

Hager all the way. Unrivalled IMHO

I'm a Click Mode switch fan.

They are IMO the best of the cheap accessories.

Don't forget their big plus (and the reason I started using them) is their switch modules are interchangeable. So if you need a 2 gang or 3 gang light switch where one module is an intermediate, you can easilly achieve that by swapping the modules around.

Unfortunately, like everyone else, I've never tried their CU's.
