That freakin' awesome and damn near creepy at the same time. I think it would be cool if someone didn't know about it and tried to open the box. I think they'd crap their pants:)
I'm curious if opening the box would turn off the light, if it was already on? Then it would be very creepy. Heh. Actually, it might just top the old marbles-in-the-bathroom-cabinet, as an anti-snoop device for parties. Muah.
How does it work at the other end, graymalkn? As in, what is receiving the signal it sends? I'm assuming it's like a universal remote control, but what does it send the signal to? Or is it more than that? Like a servo motor or something?
Nothing nearly so complex, sadly - just the reciever of one of those remote-control-anything units. Follow the link at top (or here) for a more detailed explanation, including a picture.
And yes, it can turn off the light when opened. Devilishly nifty idea!
