What you mean?
You want to use the 2 buttons to toggle 2 devices, or
use the 2 buttons to turn 1 device on with 1st button and off with the 2nd?

i used this with NodeRed to toggle 8 devices :nerd_face:

Make a template switch.

do you know, the rfxcom integration is also adding a switch and a binary sensor. the state of the sensor is not changing?
