I need to wire a floodlight controlled by an external PIR and a wireless switch in parallel.
I wanted to use a Quinetic switch or fob as they don't need a battery. Problem is they are retractive and so it won't be obvious when the floodlight is on whether that is because the sensor has been triggered or because the wireless switch is overriding the sensor.
Is the only solution to use an EasySwitch arrangement https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/LMEST1.html which does need a battery or is there another way - perhaps with an indicator on a contactor n/c which would be off when in override mode and on in PIR only mode.....
Thanks all.
