Does anyone know if the LC2 will fit back to the wall with no gaps? Thanks.

How are you planning to fix it to the wall ? The only way I can think of is to pop the white top off and drill two holes in the black plastic. But I see you all ready have a Rania which is better suited for that job.

Hi Chris,

Have a look here. It is in Dutch, but use Google translate for reading in English.

It is possible to mount the LC2 to the wall. Good luck with a bit of creativity ;-)

No problem - worked for many years in my house with three LC2s mounted directly to the wall.

I just drilled two holes into the white back plate of my LC2, so it is possible to fasten the plate to the light switch wallbox .

Leave the black dome or the wall/ceiling/floor bracket on the backside off and plug your LC2 to the back plate on the wall.

The wiring is hidden in the wall box. Now you can control your LC2 via Beo4/5/6 from anywhere in the room, and it`s simple to use the touch dome, because it is placed exactly where your light switch had been installed.

Hope this helps.

Stefan

Was thinking of cutting the back of the wall box (standard UK fit) with a hole saw. Wiring up the LC2 and to avoid damaging, silicon the LC2 to the wall.

Chris you are only drilling the back plate so its not obvious and I suspect you have more faith in silicone than it deserves.If you get it to stick with silicone you would have a hard time to access/remove it later.
