In the current web portal there is only space for 10 button's (more tab's in the next relase)

With one button you can control a device on/off

Yes you can use only one button to turn a lamp on or off ... often referred as a toggle switch.
In case you are remotely and can't see the result you will never be sure if the lamp is on or off.

There is another way - in case you press the portal button only once in a period of let say 10 seconds - the lamp will be switched off - in case you pushed the button twice within 10 secs. the lamp will be switched on.

You can use a timer of 10 sec. starting at the first button-push and switching the lamp off ... and in case of a second push of the portal button check if the 10 sec. timer is still running if so switch the lamp on. Just take a couple of seconds between the two pushes in order to let the HCB process the commands ....
