Ken_leong 2nd Gear April 13, 2018 Share April 13, 2018 Thanks for all the replies; my LED was installed by developer and getting the designated electrician would cost me an arm and leg; hoping to âoutsourceâ the repair to an external electricianYes. I agree with the others with you taking a picture to show us.Sometimes it’s cheaper to just change the led altogether instead of sourcing for the driver. I re-run my cove lights from olden days fluorescent tubes to led type which I ordered online and it didn’t cost me an arm or leg. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken_leong 2nd Gear April 14, 2018 Share April 14, 2018 Haha.... so steady ðð... unfortunately my situation is a bit tricky cos to get above the false ceiling to access the LED driver, the ceiling quite high up.... old man already ð Thanks for all the advice.... Will check for Meanwell on the net and have a go at it; thank you ð The intention was never to boast. But many a time, most of us have found out the hard and expensive way when we call someone to do a ‘simple’ job. U could actually be charged $200 for an item which actually costs $20 and could actually get online or at sim lim tower. And after my $120 toilet choke lesson, I’m quite determined to try to figure out any problem myself first before I give up and hand over to the ‘professionals’. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discoburg Supersonic April 23, 2018 Share April 23, 2018 On off switch?Yeah. Some 3 gang 2 way, 2 gang 2 way and some 2 and 3 gang 1 way switches. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discoburg Supersonic April 24, 2018 Share April 24, 2018 I paid him $50. He changed for me 4x 2 gang 2 way, 1x 2 gang 1 way, 2x 1 gang 1 way, 1x 3 gang 1 way, 1x 3 gang 2 way What’s the price for changing one? Or it’s a lump sum quotation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mkl22 Supersonic April 25, 2018 Share April 25, 2018 Yup.Very reasonable. Probably took 30mins. It’s not difficult to diy also. Such switches are cheap from choo Chiang marketing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurty Supercharged April 25, 2018 Share April 25, 2018 Yup. able to share his contact? sorry to ask, electrician knows/can ceiling light and kitchen faucet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash2017 Twincharged April 25, 2018 Share April 25, 2018 I paid him $50. He changed for me 4x 2 gang 2 way, 1x 2 gang 1 way, 2x 1 gang 1 way, 1x 3 gang 1 way, 1x 3 gang 2 way Cheap even by NTUC standard. The electrician time and transport already cost a few dollars. Recently, I found a electrician who charged labour and 3 (1 x 3 gang 1 way, 1 2 gang 1 way and 2 gang 2 way) wall switches including parts for $80 at a colleague's HDB flat but the same electrician charge $50 per switch (labour and parts) for condo's. I find this kind of pricing a bit rich for me. Many staying in HDB are many times richer than those staying in condo. Look at T2 staying in CCK HDB is richer than 95% of those here in MCF. His asset probably more than the combine asset of 60% of members here. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discoburg Supersonic April 25, 2018 Share April 25, 2018 $50 is really cheap Can give contact? Thanks a lot man! Will PM ya.It’s easy to DIY but I do not have the electrical wires. I bought the switches on my own. Very reasonable. Probably took 30mins. It’s not difficult to diy also. Such switches are cheap from choo Chiang marketing. My parts alone cost me $30. So I paid the same price as your electrician Cheap even by NTUC standard. The electrician time and transport already cost a few dollars.
