Companion Switches - Question

[ksum]

No worries. This just means the answer is: There are 2 possible solutions depending on the products you purchase. Be careful because you could also purchase products that would not allow for this. Check the specific manufacturer.

This sounds like the solution I need! Thanks

If I go this route, it doesn't matter which brands I use, as long as my controller see's all 3 devices?

That is correct. Brands don't matter if you are using events. Yes they all must be included in HS.

I haven't mentioned brands because I have not purchased anything yet. I recently moved into a new home and I am trying to formulate a plan for my landscape lighting. Currently 2 switches controls all my landscape lighting and those 2 switches are far away from my house, I was wondering if I install 2 seperate zwave switches there can I put a Zwave switch inside so I can turn them on/off manually. Those 2 switches are on separate circuits.

I should have presented all the facts first rather than ask piecemeal questions (sorry) and thanks for your help!

It won't matter if they are on separate circuits. Z-wave is all through the air. One thing that ksum mentioned that is important is try to get switches that have instant status.
