Hey all,

I have a 4 way regular combined light switches on my left, one of which turns on the kitchen light:

The problem is, my kitchen is on the right side of the hallway, so every time I have to go left to turn on the lights.

I would like to put an additional light switch on the right side of the hall, at the entrance to the kitchen, without having to drill the walls and put additional cable.

Is there some kind of wireless light switch paired with something I could put in front of my lightbulb cable that could work in complement to the existing light switch? I don’t want wi-fi solutions, it would be stupid not to be able to turn on lights when internet is down.

    There are two types of lights in my kitchen, led lights near the wall and strong LED’s over the kitchen island - we usually turn them on when cooking, it wouldn’t be great if those were motion turned as it’s too strong. But thanks for the idea!

      Once the led lights turn on, you could have a local switch to control the bright lights there itself. Disconnect the bright lights from the distant panel completely.
