Mounting a tablet over light switches

Hardware
1

OK, I’m getting hooked enough that I might need to put a tablet or two on my wall. I might even get my wife’s approval!

When I installed the Hue lights some time ago, I bypassed all the light switches. So it occurs to me that there are these blank plates on the wall that have power behind them.

Anyone tried mounting a tablet over a UK-style light switch box and have any recommendations? For tablets, mounts, power supplies…

Any suggestions gratefully received!

Hi @quentinsf
Not exactly what you are after, but this video for Konnected will give you some ideas.
Hope it helps :slight_smile:

Thanks! The Fully Kiosk browser looks as if it might be useful for another project too…

These look like nice mounts, though pricey…

You could keep an eye out on Etsy. Some reasonable priced mounts on there
