A light switch includes an outer housing formed with a plurality of intersecting walls to define a recess and including a first ferromagnetic material. The outer housing is configured to be coupled with an external structure by a plurality of mounting brackets integrally formed as part of the outer housing and extending outwardly therefrom. The light switch also includes an inner housing. The inter housing includes a user controllable switch mechanism and a second ferromagnetic material. At least one of the first ferromagnetic material and the second ferromagnetic material comprises a permanent magnet, and the inner housing is sized to be received and removably maintained in the recess formed in the outer housing by magnetic attraction between the first ferromagnetic material and the second ferromagnetic material.
