Manual light switches

Has anyone added manual switches for the kitchen ceiling light or the living room ceiling light? I have tried reaching Palamino's customer service, all I get is passed to a voice mail box with no response.

What do you have now, a switch on the fixture itself?

I'm watching this thread since I'd like to add a wall switch for the light over my Wildcat dining table.

I'm sure you meant "switches". My question was not 'what do you want to do?' but 'what do you have now that your are looking to replace?" Thanks.

If you can’t, or don’t want to “fish” remote wiring inside the walls in your RV, I’ve used this product to run wiring for remote switches for lights and fans in our rig because someone else in our rig 🤫 is vertically challenged.

Now everyone can reach.

It is the 'one touch' panel that I want to add them to. Like the bedroom switch, controlled by the 'one touch' or manually. If you turn on the light with the 'one touch' you must turn it off with the 'one touch' However, if you use the manual switch to turn on the light, you must turn it off manually. I am just tired of using the 'one touch' all the time when I come into the rig. It is sexy, cool, uptown, but simple is great.

I did that on a Coleman FBS16 that I traded. Wasn't too hard in my case. I fished the wire through the base of the cabinet. Just had to remember to leave the overhead switch on if you wanted the wall mount one to work. I probably could/should have bypassed the fixture switch but didn't bother.
