Hi... In my bedroom I currently have a pull cord light switch. Im thinking
of having a long cord pendant light by the side of my bed... My question
is.... Is it possible to buy a PULL CORD light switch that would operate each
light fitting individually at separate times.... Kind regards.


No. Such things existed long ago and it's doable to make them. Each pull of the cord turns a wheel 1/4 or 1/6th of a turn. Every other position is both off. Sticky out bits on the wheel press on microswitches - 6 way adds a 'both on' position. Or it could be done with a little digital logic & 2 relays.

ALEXA !!!!, turn the lights off.
