Depends how they wired mate…..I’d assume they are wired in series in which case you’ll need to separate them and turn the current feed to the second light into loop in and you’ll need another switch drop cable or a wireless switch and receiver, quinetic is a brand…..either way I’d recommend an electrician sorry

In SERIES, Eggy?

It may be an easy job, it may not. All depends how it was wired originally.

Right in saying Quinetic, or other Smart home solutions are available.

Or put Philips Hue bluetooth lightbulbs in both fittings, leave the switch on, and control the lights with your (cell)phone!
Then you don't need an electrician

They won't be wired in series as they would be very dim if they were.

I think he meant one after the other so they are both controlled by the same switch.

Badegg knows the difference between series and parallel.

It was a case of lager and trying to put it in layman’s terms and I failed miserably
