***UPDATE** Thank you everyone for the help and suggestions I fitted the 2a 230v pull switch along with the 230v neon power indicator and everything is working as required. I now have full control over the Demister (and electric bill) all without affecting the lights or time. Thanks again.

You are correct John, it is exactly as you wrote.

Thanks John, this is reassuring to know. I think the length will be ok but I will double measure up before ordering any parts. So from the original idea of just shutting the whole mirror down thanks to this forum I will now be able to control the Demister and have a light indicator too while...

http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/220-240vac-blue-snap-in-neon-indicator-lamp-n92bn Would something like this be appropriate? Am I right in assuming I would connect it by taking the Live from my pull switch and Neutral from the original feed and it would turn on along with the Demister? Thanks

Thanks for the idea, but I think that will be a bit too much for me, I have limited electrical knowledge, hence why I'm here getting great advice for free A guy at work suggested it might be possible to connect a small LED power indicator to the Demister feed ?? Thanks

The lights are controlled by the white box with red wires sticking out. They are activated by a touchpad on the front of the mirror which also has the time on it. Yes the the black/white cable join looks to be the most convenient way to put the switch in. The only way I'll know it's on/off is...

Hi all, 4 screws and managed to get it open here are some pics. As you can see the feed splits so should be able to do the pull switch method. The white box is for the clock and led lighting touch control.

Just to add I'm not too fussed if I have to pull a cord switch to then use the led lights (don't think the Mrs would like it though) As long as the Demister can be turned off I'd be more than happy.

Thanks for the replys. Yes the translation is bit off, they sent me a manual via email that didn't even relate to this model. Definitely a Chinese import half the email was in Chinese. When I spoke to electrician, who was sub contracted, he never mentioned a switch but I will ask. Yes the feed...

Thanks for the reply. £24 a year doesn't seem too bad I suppose but it all adds up. Wife bought the mirror from eBay, seems a unbranded import and the "Demister has PET applied safely working at constant temperature" ?? they say it is IP44, IP67, CE and ROHS certified and has a Omniseal Alu...

Hi all, Just moved back in to our renovated house. We have a Led mirror fitted in the bathroom. The electrician told me he wired it to the upstairs socket circuit which is fine and the mirror functions as required. My only problem is this particular mirror has a always on Demister Pad and a...
