Dear forum members!
Would you be so kind and help me understand the actual difference between the following multi-vent offerings on the UK market? They are of identical dimensions and almost identical design. But the prices are very different (£30, £120 and £220)! What's the catch?

Thank you for explaining! I guess the premium is paid for the 'interconnected' bit and for the battery backup.

1) Upstairs lights - not suitable, as it lives on a 6A RCD (B6)
2) A mysterious 63A RCD Protected Circuits breaker that gives power...
I suspect that we will need to take off much more tile if the work is to continue. But in principle I've picked up the following access hatch from eBay:
Will probabaly remove some grout between the plasterboard and the surrounding tiles around the perimeter and stick in the 'rails' using adhesive
