I’m looking for other options that work similar to the GoControl WA00Z Scene Controller. It’s a battery operated switch that goes over a standard light switch.

see the buttons FAQ. They’re all listed there.

Ideally, I’d like to find something similar to the following: [http://www.evolvecontrols.com/devices/control-devices/glass-series](http://www.evolvecontrols.com/devices/control-devices/glass-series) Though alternatively just a simple nice-looking button which actually works unlike this Aeon according to Amazon reviews: [http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Panel-Button-Switch-AL-001/dp/B00GL6B4GG/ref=sr\_1\_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1421468320&sr=1-3&keywords=aeon+button](http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Panel-Button-Switch-AL-001/dp/B00GL6B4GG/ref=sr_1_3?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1421468320&sr=1-3&keywords=aeon+button) There is an Aeon Key Fob as well, but it doesn’t seem to be very durable or stylish: What else is available?

Ended up going with the [Eaton Aspire Cooper RF9500 battery operated switch](http://amzn.to/2eiEhiB).  
Notes, the big button is just one button. Doesn’t matter where you push it, it registers as Button1. The small dimmer switch on the side is 2 buttons. Down is Button2 and Up is Button3. Right now it doesn’t register hold button events (just button press), but I think the DT could be updated to handle that? It also doesn’t report battery life. That may also be available once the DT is updated, but I couldn’t figure it out.

> Hey @urman, I got the switch today and immediately started to pair it with ST. I was able to get it on the paired, however I’m unable to have it function to control any units. I tried the various Zwave device types, and the only one the recognizes any commands was the “Zwave Controller”. The logs says this when ever I select either ON or OFF buttons: BasicReport(value: 1) 6BasicGet() Any ideas? Only documentation I found were here: [http://www.cooperindustries.com/content/dam/public/wiringdevices/products/documents/technical\_specifications/advancedtechinfo\_V2.pdf](http://www.cooperindustries.com/content/dam/public/wiringdevices/products/documents/technical_specifications/advancedtechinfo_V2.pdf)
