| X4477 Reprinted from The Motor June 5, 1928. USEFUL TWO-WAY SWITCH. Designed for Foot Operation. AN interesting and useful foot-operated two-way switch designed to be used in conjunction with the Marchal headlamps, which employ two separate bulbs (or the Trilux in which a third is employed), is marketed by C. V.{VIENNA} Desiderio, 143, Whitfield Street, London, W.1, who also handle the Marchal equipment. The design of the switch is clearly shown in the accompanying sketch. The depression of the plunger automatically operates first one side of the pivoted switch, then the other, the plunger swinging from one side to the other as released. The switch can, of course, also be used in conjunction with any lighting system for which a two-way connection is required. The price is 18s. 6d.
