Hi
Anyone know where the switch is? and where I can get another from as Paddocks don't seem to have one - hmmm - strange! :?

Can you adjust it? as my lights seem to have a non-consistent working routine! or is it just to replace it instead?     robbo

It should look similar to the one below but it will have two nuts on it, you loosen the outer nut then move the inner one up or down the threaded bit then lock the outer one back up
