Unfortunately, and their major downfall, is that LW10Us don't send a
signal at all. :(

This means if you use an LW10U to switch a light manually, then your
controller has no idea of the current status (unless you have some sort
of light level monitoring... :D )

To do any sorts of capturing, you're looking at an LD10 (the din rail
ones) which requires re-wiring, or I think the German version of the
LW10, but I'm sure they require a neutral, and therefore need re-wiring.
