Re: Is a dimmer switch on the mini bot legal?

Guys,
A dimmer is not a switch. It might have a switch inside but is classed as a dimmer.
<R92>
N. no more than two common household light switches,

And from TU #12
anything sold as a “light switch” for household use is allowed.

BTW, the dimmer also contains a variety of non-legal components including SCR or Triac, resistors, pot, inductors and capacitors.
