As part of my plan to replace the 2 way/3 way light switches without
pulling up floor boards or some form of mains re-wiring I have the
following plan.

Use BM-1 (Socket Rockets) Bayonet X10 controllers in each of the
light sockets.

Mount SS13 RF switches at the relevant points.


This leaves the problem of what to do with the old light switches
(which need to be permantly on).

One solution is to hard wire them on and replace with blanking plates

OR

Even better, switch the switches on and then place some sort of small
plastic cover over the switch so Non-HA aware users don't switch them
off.

Does anybody know if you can buy said "small plastic covers"?

I could use some white tape over the switch, but SWMBO would probably
react badly to that!
