Those are hoojangers, sometimes called doohickeys.

They're in the hell box. ;-)

:-D

What I'm trying to do is cut lamps lose from the remote, so that the
lamps turn on and off via a wall switch.

Poking around in the guts I find a "DawnSun Power Limiter", which
might seem to be a dimmer (*). Anyone know about such things?

(*) Which seems sort of dumb... lamp is Halogen, and my understanding
is Halogen's when dimmed, suffer lifetime ??

Hire an electrician. Anything much past 3.3 volts, you're a danger to the public
and yourself.


PALwHUB :-(

BTW, My father was an electrician _before_ he got into the Radio & TV,
hardware store and apartment houses businesses... and I used to
function as his assistant on weekends when I was a kid :-}

Isn't it time you grew up?

Grow up? And spend my declining years at home, fixing broken wine racks and
rusty outdoor grilles? No thanks.
