It is generally not safe to put a battery operated device inside a wall unless designed for that purpose because batteries can and do outgas.

Though alternatively just a simple nice-looking button which actually works unlike this Aeon according to Amazon reviews: Ideally, I’d like to find something similar to the following: I’d like to know which buttons and remotes are currently supported or might be supported in the future.
