Wireless Remote Switch
Anyone using a wireless remote electrical switch to turn their board on and off? (see image below)
If so, be careful! I keep my board set up in an extra bedroom on a table with all my junk, etc.. My 308 is plugged in and ready to rock and roll at any time. I hooked one of these wireless electric switches up to it, so now I don't have the white cord with a switch on it to pass back and forth from one coach to another, there is just a small wireless keyfob to turn the field on and off. Thanks for the idea Vince!!!! I am sitting here in that same room on the Internet, the 308 jumps to life acrosss the room and starts humming, scared the heck out of me, I spun around expecting to see that the cat stepped on the wireless switch and she was not in the room. I turned it off and sat back at the computer, wondering what had happened, then I look out the window across the street and see my neighbor backing out of his driveway and his garage door closing. It dawned on me, that the opening/closing of his garage door set the field off, as the receiver in my room must have gotten a signal from his garage door remote and it turned my field on. Interesting, I love this wireless switch, now I make sure I keep the field off when not in use. Had this happened at 7:00am on a work day when no one was here, the field would have run all day and burned the motor right out.

I dont know whether to laugh, be concerned or wonder why we are both still awake and on this board.

There are wirless "light switches". Not sure if it's one of those Billy Mazeing things or what, but they also work great. It runs off of batteries and looks like your light switch on the wall. Got it at Rite-Aid or Walgreens or somewhere like that.
