2442 sense wires with 12v switch possible?

[Banichi]

I'm wondering if anyone knows if the sense wires requires a 120V line voltage or if it just needs any voltage to be triggered? I have a scenario where I have a piece of furniture that has some 12v push buttons that switch some LED strips. I'd like to use a micro module to switch them at the driver but still utilize the buttons that I can't move without leaving a bad hole and don't want to just make them inoperable. If there was a replacement that was 120V that would fit in the same spot then I would do that but I don't think that exists. Buttons are like 1/2' round buttons.

Oh would it work to use a relay maybe with the existing buttons in conjunction with the sense wire? Maybe that's the solution. Sorry it's late, my brain is working poorly, and I'm just thinking out loud.

Thoughts?

The module uses the 120VAC Line into the Sense Wire to control it. I doubt a 12V signal would work and it would have to be 12V from the sense wire to the Neutral power feed.

Your second thought  sounds better. A relay with the proper voltage coil. Could be wired to the 12 volts and have the relay contacts switch the AC  Line into  the module as you mentioned. Just use caution to do safe wiring  as 120 Volts is involved.

If you switch the driver (or power supply) will you lose your 12 volts at the switch?  Curious why you want to switch the driver?
