Yes, I believe that would be your best choice. After having many X-10
brand switches self-destruct over the years, I recently went to
ToggleLincs, and for the most part they do very well.

Just note that if people in your house are already used to X-10
pushbuttons, the may have a little trouble getting used to flicking a
pseudo-toggle up or down instead of pushing in a button.

If they've never used anything but traditional toggles, then the
ToggleLlinc is still a little different, because it snaps back to the
center position instead of staying up or down.
