    Hello

    I have a regular light switch (on/off) in my bathroom and I would like to connect a smart wifi switch to it, which between e.g. 22-6am would automatically switch off the light, 5min after it is switched on.

    It seems like a simple matter, but how will the switch behave once it has switched off and has no power at that time? I can't fit it in a socket with a switch, I can put it next to the lamp itself in the bathroom.

    Thank you for your help.

    Perhaps this could be realised using a stair switch in the wall
    and simulating a second one - with a wi-fi controlled light source?

    Well, what I want is for the old switch to remain. All I want is for the light to be disconnected 5 minutes after being switched on at given times. So, theoretically, I switch on the light after 10pm, the current flows and powers the lamp and the smart switch. If I do not switch off the lamp myself, the switch cuts the power after 5min.

    I don't know how the switch will behave after a power outage. I understand that when I switch on the light, the switch starts, connects to the wifi and it should theoretically work ?

    The staircase switch will fit in the box without any problems.
    With no current coming into the switch, it will not work.

    I fully agree, it won't work because it won't have power, but what about when the light is on ?

    I only want it to disconnect the lamp from 22-6. Nothing else.

    I go into the bathroom after 10pm, switch on the light and then the switch gets power. Will it then not automatically connect to the wifi and disconnect the power 5min after starting ?
