The switches are small and in the basement workshop is some sort of panel which buzzes each time you press a light switch. I dread the day the system stops working. I think in 1965 it was considered the hot, new thing to use. Is it like this? Cool bar by the way!!! http://retrorenovation.com/2009/07/17/gretchens-1961-ge-solenoid-system-lighting/
