Hello i am looking for a wifi switch that would be suitable for a shed workshop Ip65 rated, that would be able to be wired so that the standard weatherproof light switch for the shed lights will still be able to be used to turn them on and off but that i can also use the wifi switch to turn them on and off aswell. Is this possible and if so where would i be able to get such a switch?

Thank you
 
If you go the Quinetic route, for wifi control, you would need to insert one of these in your lighting circuit -
It requires both a live and neutral feed, so may have to go somewhere other than where your existing light switch is

And then a Quinetic light switch (or several if you want!) to operate it locally:

They do a remote button if you just want to turn it on/off from say your house.

The phone that runs the app has to be on the same wifi network as the Quinetic switch. Alexa and Siri supported!
Presumably you have a decent wifi signal at the shed?
