12v remote control light...

I'd like to add remote control light to my step/stairwell and a few outside lights

Found something like this


From here:

Online Shop Wireless Remote Control Light Switch 12V 1CH Remote Switch System|Aliexpress Mobile

But, I'd be looking for multiple channels, to separate exterior lights from stairwell lights.

Has anybody added remote control lights?
Which one?
How do they work for you?

I believe someone posted recently about using an Arduino for remote locking and lighting control. The were six channels, IIRC. Remote is you smart phone via Bluetooth.

Good luck!

I have both Bluetooth and RC controls. All of the interior lights are RC. Each room has a four relay module each with it's own transmitter. I then just mounted the transmitter like a light switch. Door lock, dome light, porch light and flag light are controlled by both. If you use Bluetooth for door lock remember to have an alternative in case phone goes dead while you're away.
