Enocean has been making battery free wireless light switches for almost 15 years. I've personally used them for about 8 years and love them. They're a lot more expensive then the $1 quote in the article but still cheaper than an electrician. They work with a strike to a piezoelectric element to make energy and transmit the signal.
I use something like this for my wireless doorbell because people kept stealing the battery. I've had it for years and it works really well.
I know times are tough but who TF out here stealing batteries
It's probably someone in his house. They either think the door bell is too loud or need the batteries for another device.
Ah yes those "other devices"... check the wife's nightstand
