Your frivolous purchases, stuff you don't need...

I wanted a switch I could use in my house to turn lights on when I am not home. Then I found this, http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-Automation-Switch-A...
From the app I can turn lights on and off, schedule them, all over IP, from anywhere in the world.
The novelty of flicking the table lights on and off as I approach the house and waiting for my girlfriend to come to the window looking unimpressed hasn't worn off yet.

After seeing one somewhere on one of these pages I've picked up a Leatherman Style PS. Not really needed as very occasionally I required a flat head screwdriver when removing/attaching the tripod head to the tripod. This seemed like a no-brainer to shove in the camera bag... 
It's tiny! Same size as the key fob for the car.

Please take some video of the test and share with us. 
I want to do similar. My Saab's horn is like a pooftah's fart.

I little disappointed if I'm honest, though I've not tested it from outside of the vehicle yet.

Thanks for making the effort.
I mean I do have a son, and it was only £15 on eBay, second hand, but he already has quite a bit of it.
In about a year he'll be old enough to play with it, by which time I might have got bored with it. I blame my parents for only letting me play on the on in the Early Learning Centre for a few minutes at a time as a kid.

I've got the Philips hue, was out all day yesterday and treated the guy fitting our oak floor to a rave up with the lights, strobes, flares the lot!From the app I can turn lights on and off, schedule them, all over IP, from anywhere in the world.

I have a fairly big box of that wooden train set - if your son(!) would like it (my boy is just about growing out of it), drop me a PM...
It's a great learning tool, Rhys has gone from having difficulty laying out an oval, to some pretty complex plans with main loops and sidings and all sorts.
