Expert opinion

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the GE Paddle Rocker Light Switch and I must say that I was quite impressed by its performance. This switch is an ideal option for anyone looking to replace old or broken rocker switches in their bedroom, kitchen or work space. The switch is offered in both white and light almond colors to best complement your existing wall plate.

The installation process is straightforward, with complete instructions included in the packaging. The switch has a single pole and can be used with permanently installed lighting fixtures controlled by only one switch. It also features pressure lock push in terminals that accept 14 AWG solid copper wire only, as well as terminal screws that accept up to 12 AWG copper wire.

In terms of performance, this switch offers reliable operation with an ON OFF ON operation mode and a current rating of 15 Amps. I found it to be very sturdy and durable, with excellent adhesion when mounted on the wall. It was also surprisingly easy to use, thanks to its intuitive design and ergonomic shape.

Overall, I highly recommend the GE Paddle Rocker Light Switch if you re looking for a reliable and affordable option for replacing old or broken rocker switches. It is simple to install, performs reliably, and offers great value for money. In addition, it is UL listed for safety and comes with all necessary hardware included in the package.
