I’ve worked with these professionally, but never actually found a way to purchase them myself. Can you recommend a supplier?

Various companies repackage or license the enOcean parts. I’ve used this one from Amazon for about 6 years and haven’t thought about it. I’ve also used others from this brand for 8+ years and had no issues. I bought an old house around Boston that had power in the ceilings but no switches anywhere so this worked perfectly for me and I was able to do it all myself.
