First, there was the 3-way Switch

And now is the remote control.

You may or may not recall how, about 2 years ago, I replaced a 3-way switch in my kitchen that both my dad and my brother were afraid of. Today, I just fixed the remote control for the ceiling fan/light in my bedroom. It was really easy. All I had to do was take apart the remote, clean the contacts and put it back together. Now I can turn on the light and the the ceiling fan in my bedroom---unfortunately, that is the only switching mechanism, so I had to fix it in order to see at night. Yay me! Now the next electronics project is to change the frequency so that when someone turns on the light with one remote downstairs, it doesn't turn on the light in my room....again, an easy fix that requires some light an a screwdriver.

Some days I'm so proud of myself.
