Abstract
A control device may be configured to be mounted over a bezel portion of an electrical device and to control a lighting load. The control device may comprise a base portion having planar extensions removably attached or affixed thereto. The planar extensions may be adapted to be received in a gap between a faceplate of the electrical device and the bezel portion for holding the control device against the faceplate. The planar extensions may comprise barbs that allow for insertion of the extensions in the gap, and may bite into the faceplate to hinder removal of the control device. The planar extensions may be defined by a mounting structure that is configured to be received in the gap between the bezel portion and the faceplate. The mounting structure may protrude beyond a front surface of the faceplate.
