I have a master bedroom with one light switch that does not control any outlets, it only controls a ceiling fan. I don't want to snake wires or tear apart drywall.
What I want is just a simple remote switch I can mount to the wall, that will work wirelessly with replacement outlets.
I *think* the 2472DWH receptacle is what I want, but I dont know what switch to pair it with. I want to stress that I want it work remotely/wirelessly, as I do not want to replace the ceiling fan switch, and I can't even guarantee that the outlets are on the same phase as the ceiling fan switch, so I don't know if a wire line RF signal would even make it to the receptacles.
So what stand-alone switch will remotely and wirelessly trigger those receptacles? And is there a self-powered switch that doesn't require a battery? Other companies make them - the force of pressing the button is enough to power the switch's remote signal, so it doesn't need to be wired in nor battery powered. Does Insteon have anything like that?
I would appreciate any help you could offer. I've been exhaustively searching for a solution and I have found nothing that seems to fit my use-case.
