    Yeah, that sucks. It really feels like a self contained “dumb” (ie not smart appliance) motion activated light should or does exist…

    There are those lights that are made for sticking in gardens beside paths (though often those are solar), or the outdoor lights that come on but it depends on how far you need the motion detected and the second one might need to be hard wired.

    Ikea does have self contained motion lights that run off rechargeable batteries and may be stick on (intended for cupboards or drawers) but they might not be powerful enough for a room and obvious drawbacks with batteries.

    There was a self contained outdoor light but it was meant to be attached by a bolt and was solar powered.

    Woolies/Big W also has a self contained battery thingy which might work for temporary use until you do the hubitat https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/1074588760/crest-rechargeable-led-with-motion-sensor-medium
