Greetings. I don't necessarily have an exact video to help you make sense of these connections, but if you search YouTube you might find some that make sense (including how to turn off the blue light even when it's off). I believe these switches will ROCK when installed correctly. I tested mine and it seems to work fine (I didn't actually test all 4 switches but.) Too bad they don't have a white version of this or some other brands switch configurations. I might end up painting this thing white because my entire room is white, white panels on the rosettes, everything. One tip (if you can call it that) is to make this expandable by the number of devices plugged into it (so you might only have 2 or 3 things you're going to plug into it, but the others are blank. Rockers are just there in case you want to add something interesting to your apartment in a few years). I think it's a great idea and I made it myself. Really think about the accessibility of these switches and which switch needs to be operated most often, from what hand position, etc. I have this on my fan intake, which also faces the sink. So I want the main lights to be to the left and close to me when I get into the van (also turned off by a connected dimmer elsewhere) and then I have a second fan and the kitchen lights are far to the right (since they are closest is). to my hands as I turned the other way and entered the kitchen room. So the 3rd switch stays open, which is a little easier to access when you're standing in the room, and up the steps of the van stays on most of the time when you're in, so I put it next to the main light so it's on when entering (it shouldn't be closer to the living space and so accessible because I don't turn it off until I'm gone!) So this is just my own example. Think about it, I want that blue light to be on or off (especially if you're sleeping next to it or in a small room next to it (van?) you probably need to turn off the standby light, and I suppose it really is just a 4-wire break.) Too bad this company didn't make dimmers, right? But it's a nice unit that makes it easy to control the station for DIY projects, boats, vans, etc. Also - VERY CONVENIENT that they already connected all the cables on the back leaving gaps for inputs!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not bad
