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.
I have some kinetic switches in my bathroom for lights and extractor (no power or battery required).
Seems to work well however I have not figured out how to integrate the wifi module with home assistant so I’m considering replacing them if I can find a better option.

what’s an extractor? how to pair the wireless switch so it works in complement with the kinetic switches? (eg. if I turn on one or the other, the lights turn on, if I turn off one or the other, the lights turn off)
Extractor fan to remove steam in the bathroom.
The link I shared you can pair switches with receivers.
To pair, you put the receiver in pairing mode then press the light switch you want to use.
They sell “dumb” versions and wifi versions (but as I said I couldn’t figure out how to integrate with home assistant)
An electrician wired it all up for me, I’m not expert on the wiring side of things.
I looked at the products, which one did you get?
I wonder why didn’t they put pictures where the small relay goes… did the electrician connect it behind the manual switch or?
Not sure I fully grasp how this works
