Q: How do these work, what would be the usage cenario, they don't really have a description
A: It would appear to be similar to the Hue Wall Switch, but without the need for batteries. You'd be able to turn on or off Hue lights with the press of a wall button instead of using the app. I used a Hue Wall Switch to add basement lights where there was no existing switch wiring. I had a floor lamp plugged in with constant power with a Hue bulb installed. Mounted a switch like this to a nearby wall with double sided tape. Programmed the switch to operate the lamp. I haven't tried this specific model yet, but the other Hue switch would even let you program various settings. Example: One tap for full brightness. 2 taps for 50% brightness, 3 taps for Blue lighting. The option of using kinetic energy for the switch power is intriguing.
