New Zigbee light switch

I am using the Aqara no neutral switches for lighting, they have been 100% reliable and work well with HE and can just be wired directly as a replacement for our UK light switches, I have put double ones in even if there is only one light switch as if one is powered then the other works and can be used as another switch to perform some other task. They are the QBKG03LM and 04LM models and use the driver from guyee. The only hassle I have is with the battery powered wireless ones WXKG03LM which are great for putting in a secondary switch where there is no wiring but they randomly drop off. The powered ones have never dropped. I have done a self made switch which is made from a retractive button and used the Philips button innards and wired them into the switch, this works well but does need a back box.
