Sure, any switch that the hub can talk to can be put on any circuit, or even a battery operated device, and then you can use it to control anything else that the hub talks to.

Cooper has a battery-operated wall switch that a lot of people like the look of. But if you have a available switchbox and you want to wire something in you can use any switch that is smartthings compatible and that switch can talk to the hub, and then the hub can talk to any of your other devices. They don’t have to be on the same circuit.

> Any one know if the RF9500 works with ST? I’m thinking about getting this in place of an existing wall switch (no neutral) and placing a zwave relay module near the lamp in the ceiling to control it. I’ve also been hearing that Aeon Labs is working on a battery operated switch, but it’s taking awhile (I’m sure theirs will be much fancier). If this works, I may just jump on it since [westwayelectricsupply.com](http://westwayelectricsupply.com) has it on sale for more than half price off (shhh… 10% off ACADEMIC10). If this solves my no neutral issue, I’m going to be ecstatic!
