my hall lighting can be switched from the front door, half

intermediates as you want.)
The landing light is also switched from several places.


My landing light could be switched from the landing or the hall, but the
hall light couldn't be switched from the landing, so I dragged in an
extra 3+E cable to fix that.


No need for a switch near the front-door, I have an occupancy sensor,
more convenient when you arrive with an armful of shopping.


What if you want to go straight upstairs to the toilet?


Works fine.

Leaving the house and want to switch lights off?


They turn off auto after a specified time.

Leave the outside lights on? And so on.


There is no and so on.

One thing you can be sure of is that 'auto'
lights hardly ever do exactly what you want. ;-)


The best ones like the Hue do. Not cheap tho.
