I gave someone a set of those. Â£10 from Marks and Spencers "Home" store. Don't know if they're still on sale, though.

When you get to a certain age, you take your thrills where you can find them. These are great fun. Whack them on the floor to set them off, and whack them again to stop.

Mix with lots of alcohol - lots of fun to be had!!

Deek.

with mine there are 2 electrical contacs and when you drop in in a liquid it starts* take it out and dry and it stops

*I assume that one contact is connected to the + on the batt that thats inside and the other to the base terminal on a transitor which has the collector connected to the + and the emmiter to the led then the otherside of the led the - of the batt. very simple indeed and now in trying to find somthing in my car that needs turning on and off witht his system

wipers

then what do i use the stalk for

i was thinking more along the lines of things that i have to add a switch for like tv screen but i might do that with the glove box door after a bit of figureing. my fogs spring to mind but i like having a chrome switch

also i thought that i could drill out 2 of the dimples on the dash and use them +plus i could get some chemical blackening agent so there stealth buttons
