Hi @ferbulous,

Yes, these features are supported!

The Arduino-ESP32 Zigbee library does support the functionality you're looking for - binding switches to Zigbee lights and effectively "detaching" the relay from the button. This is exactly what smart switches like Aqara do.

Key Features Available:

1. Switch-to-Light Binding
   The library provides comprehensive binding capabilities:

   • Automatic binding: Switches can automatically discover and bind to lights
   • Manual binding: You can manually configure which lights the switch controls
   • Multiple binding: One switch can control multiple lights simultaneously

2. Manual Binding Mode (Key for your use case)
   The library includes a setManualBinding(true) function that allows you to:

   • Disable automatic binding
   • Manually configure which lights the switch controls
   • Store light configurations in NVS (Non-Volatile Storage) so they persist after power loss

Example you can look into is Zigbee_On_Off_MultiSwitch
This example demonstrates exactly what you need:

• Controls up to 3 different lights independently
• Uses manual binding mode
• Stores light configurations in NVS
• Provides serial commands to configure lights by endpoint and IEEE address
