I am building a new house and I am trying to prewire as much as possible. If price was not an object what would you pre-wire? in c/homeautomation@selfhosted.forum

Run power by the shower so you can get one of those fancy showers with the wall panel some day.

Ok that fake switch is super cool. I have a little zigbee button but to make it look like a wall switch is great.

Bedroom Lights Solution Needed (alien.top)
 

I run a Hubitat hub and use Home Bridge to get to HomeKit as the front end.

In the master bedroom there are 2 Sengled LED bulbs in lamps on the bedside tables and overhead dimmable LED lights. The overhead lights are controlled by a GE/Jasco Dimmer switch.

The problem I’m trying to solve is that sometimes as you are leaving the bedroom you want to turn off the lamps, ideally using the light switch but the light switch is only attached to the overhead lights.

Currently the lamp bulbs are only controlled by voice.

If I could, for example, double tap the off button on the switch I could set that up through a Hubitat rule or whatever, but the current switch doesn’t support actions besides on/off/dim.

Is there a better switch or wall mounted device that would control both the lamps and the overhead lights in the space of one light switch?

Thanks!
