How have you done this? Wireless bulbs? Changing switches? I need to know!

My house has inconvenient switches in almost every room.

    - But... are they good? -- nm - mafic Apr 20, 08:05 1
      - Dunno. See the link above. I imagine if those "smart plugs" work fine, the same brand smart switches would be cool -- nm - oblique Apr 20, 08:05
- The security guys hate those. The "no hub" thing means hackable to them -- nm - oblique Apr 20, 07:58 1
  - *shrug* someone would have to crack my firewall first so I'm not too worried about it -- nm - decline Apr 20, 08:00
