Powering Your Switch
Connect the supplied AC adapter to 12VDC/100mA
on the back of the switch. Then, plug the other end of the
adapter into a standard AC outlet. The power turns on.

Note: To avoid injury, do not connect the adapter to a
ceiling outlet.


My gosh! A new thing to worry about.



From generic antenna installation instructions, from
www.terrestrial-digital.com

After a page of warnings about grounding, power lines and windy days,
more warnings:

WARNING
Do not attempt to install if drunk, pregnant or both.
Do not eat antenna.
Do not throw antenna at spouse.


I guess that's one of those "direct translation from the Chinese" things,


I think this was just the sense of humor of the guys at
terrestrial-digital. I think it's great.

but here's a serious one I saw the other day on a building compound gate at
my local supermarket where they are doing some refurbing. It said

"No alcohol or drugs to be used on this site"

What is the world coming to ? My wife won a toy radio controlled car at the
bingo last weekend. Some of the instructions on that box were hysterical,
but she's given it away now, so unfortunately, I can't share :-( That
was mine to play with ...
