Light over bed - remote

I know that this is small potatoes but it really annoyed me. I would get over it easily enough though. What I'm talking about is in my Hideout the light over the bed is just a standard trailer light. I would hate have to crawl up on the bed reach up and turn it on. Like I said not a big deal to anyone but me.
What I did is found a nice little remote system on amazon. I paid 3 bucks for this thing and free shipping. From China of course but the shipping was actually faster than expected. Anyway, what I like about it was the size of the unit was so small it fit in the ceiling above the light. took about 5 minutes out of my life to make it so much easier. Works great too. I just velcroed the remote on the wall near the door.
  • Ordered yesterday. Amazon was given a expected delivery date of in late September. Today I received an email stating it has shipped. Fast, eh!

  • Since the LED's in that fixture aren't dimmable it only turns on and off but I'm sure with dimmable lights it would work.

    Papa, the link is in the second post under my initial post. Amazon for $2.67 with free shipping. Not sure how they make money.
  • That looks cool. Also looks like it is a dimmer. How does that function work?

  • Thanks. Didn't know if we could link stuff like that. Might have thought I was the one selling.
