The Octoplex™

This is a wall plate designed to fit over a duplex decorator/paddle switch and make it look like there are 4X as many switches.

Update: Watch William Osman and Kevin TheBackyardScientist unbox it!

Assembly instructions:

• Purchase six additional switches.
• Cut off the portion of the switch in front of the metal plate using a rotary tool or hacksaw. Keep the front portion and discard the back portion.
• Snap a switch into each of the six holes not occupied by the actual switches.
• Apply a 3M Velcro picture hanging strips to the plateaus in the top half. These provide additional support since the wall plate extends so far above the mounting screws.
• Attach as you would any other wall plate.

I do not own a trademark for Octoplex, the trademark symbol is included for comedic effect.
