Thank you for the videos. The switches are loud though. Likely not worth replacing the pull cord with ?

 

Some pull cords are louder. Depends on the substrate and surrounding wall finishes with these switches.

Too loud?  Amazing....I never noticed the difference in our living area switches - barely discernible click - to those in the bedrooms with a louder click.

Perhaps not wholly on-topic, but I replaced our MK bathroom pull switches (which made a really loud click - enough to wake the dead) with these Contactum ones, which are a great deal quieter: https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CM2781.html

The switch next to the bath is going to sound louder and more "tinny" I guess as it's echoing off of the tiles. This is the switch fitted to the pb as you walk into the bathroom:

Actually, it also depends on your mobile mic sensitivity and position - it is quite close. Hopefully, the sound can't be heard outside of the room.

Thanks all decision made.

Have a look at Lutron Pico, I got a couple of switches and a dimmer as a test - I will be using them.

 

Aurora Aone also looks good.

Cables are cheap, and reliable, with no moving parts   

If it’s a new install, cables every day of the week. 

Reto fit / upgrade, then quinetic switches are the mutts nuts. Very reliable.

Yes @Nickfromwales have decided to give them a miss.
