Description
Now you can replace vintage GE push switches with these wall-mounted units. These sets are designed to rest on cement or plaster wall where adding a recessed electrical box is not an option. The switches themselves have two buttons that function like the antique mini push on/off rockers except that they are now split into two buttons.
