I take the point about what's officially supported recommended but
just to clarify do all the switches basically use a single pair of
wires for signalling?

Or... do some of the smarter switches use multiple pairs?

I see I can use the existing momentary switches with one of these aux
unit or similar but can I put the proper 'pretty' CBus switches on too?

Thanks - sorry if dumb question.
