At least control your TV and 2 small appliances.
Control Switch Specifications:
Input: 120V ~ 60Hz, 220W
Output: 120V ~ 60Hz, 200W, 1.6A (description says control a HEATER, but not really as it's only 200W rating)
Would have made a dandy Christmas gift if they sold it 2 weeks ago!
Another cool hack: mount the remote (or just the guts, or send the IR code directly) on your S2 or mobile robot and have it turn appliances on/off as it does a driveby. Lighting the way!
@PARALLAX: That's actually not a half-bad idea! You should sell these cheap little IR control switches and Stamp/Prop code to control them.

They learn from your existing IR remote (or S2, Scribbler or whatever) to switch the appliance. I ordered two!
