Ooooooooooh Will this really work.....?

I've shyed away from the LD stuff in the past due to living in a 1
bedroom flat with ridiculously high ceilings and red stone walls, which
means I have no access from above, and the walls crumble to buggery when
you try to knock holes in them, so chasing new wires and stuff just
wasn't going to happen, hence putting up with LW units....... But, if
this will work without any new wires, then I can chuck one of these into
the ceiling in the bedroom, and change the switch for a momentary
one...... That would be cool :)

(Can you tell I know squat about electrical wiring? :) )
