I recently purchased a kinetic light switch with two buttons and two receivers like this one
Kinetic Light Switch and Receiver Kit - Double | Kinetic Self-Powered Wireless Switches - https://wireless-switches.com/product/kinetic-light-switch-and-receiver-kit-double/ (if links are not allowed, please delete it).
I connected one fixture, but for the other I don't have space on the ceiling, because the fixture is unusual. I have space behind the traditional switch. Can I connect the other receiver in the wall, behind the traditional switch and if yes how?
Thanks
 
Welcome to the forum mate.
Unfortunately the works computer will not let me open the link.
Maybe someone could copy/paste wiring of light switch into a post.
 
can you not fit the receiver above the ceiling, then feed down to light.
 
You can probably connect the receiver behind the switch, those receivers have a battery so no permanent live required which makes it easier. Couple of points-
  • If you have a switch with a receiver behind it, why not just use a switch?
  • Your link shows switches rated for 80-150V for American use. Do you have a version for UK mains?
 
or looking at the thread title, maybe he wants the lights powered from the cloud. (lightning).
