Ok, I've made a bit of a mess of my hall lighting.
When we come in the front door at night, it is pitch black. So I bought two of these LED timers off Amazon - https://www.amazon.co.uk/illuminate...01M25SSAI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 - which are supposed to be 2 way as it says. But they're not.. there's only a Line In and a Line Out. Obviously the hallway already has 2x 1 gang 2 way switches which I thought would be a straight swap. There don't seem to be any 2 way versions.
I'm wondering if there's a way to make it work?
I've drawn out some switching which appears to work but I think in one of the permutations, the live at switch 2 gets switched back to the switched live at switch 1. See my diagram.
Any suggestions most welcome!
