Non Wi-Fi remote switches?

[boyse7en]

I've got a Trust Smarthome switch (its a small plastic box that receives a signal from a paired PIR and switches on) and two PIR sensors set up on my drive to turn the lights on when I drive in or out. Been working nicely until recently.
Investigation has shown that the switch has failed, shouldn't be a problem except that either Trust don't make them any more, or just don't bring them into the UK.

Are there any non-WiFi remote switches still available? Everything seems to use the household WiFi to operate now, but my WiFi doesn't extend down to my driveway, and I don't need all the smart functionality anyway. I just need an old-school system.


This is what I had...

Perhaps something like: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Control-Learning-Wireless...

If they are mains operated then just put a pir switch in.

From your description it's not very clear what is switching what. Are you saying you have two PIR dectectors which are wirelessly connected to this defunct receiver/switch which then switches on the lights?

Have you tried these suppliers? It let me put one in the basket.

Or try the ACM-2000, you might be lucky & find they haven't changed the control protocol:

Being from Amazon you can always return it if it doesn't work.

Yes...
One PIR at the top of the drive, one at the bottom. They are battery powered (pair of AAA in each) so i don't have cables running from them to the switch.
The switch is fitted in a waterproof box and allows the mains-powered lights to switch on and off when the PIRs sense movement.

The first lot haven't got them in stock, and Trust says "This product is no longer available in the current Trust assortment." so i doubt they will get one in any time soon.

I've ordered the Amazon one and will see if it works. Fingers crossed!
