Light switch with home floor plans

Light

When you have a panel full of light switches, it can be challenging to remember which is which. The light switch for home floor plans switch offers an easy solve. The switches are modified according to the floor plan of the room and operate accordingly. So in a single glance you know which switch controls what. It'd still be cool to control them with a panel like this, though. The idea of knowing which light is on without knowing the room and only by connecting what you see to the light switch is gooooooood. At least that is what most product designers want to achieve in their designs; intuitive connection between user and object.

Wireless fixtures and even bulbs mean extra headaches for electricians is not necessary, at all.

I don?t believe the manufacturer suggests this switch would replace every single switch in your house. Thoughtfully placed however (at master bedside, near front and rear doors) these would be a godsend to many including the elderly and those who are worried about safety and security.

@mwashington3j Added sense of safety, security to name a few. Turning on a light at the other end of the house might scare a prowler away, thinking there are more than one directions a homeowner might come at them from. For gods sake, use your imagination

@kduncan3k No additional wiring is necessary! Wireless technology is found not only in light fixtures/lamps, but also has now made its way into individual light bulbs. So, no sir, no additional wiring is needed.
