Short dc power-line pulses afford remote control


Posted on Nov 30, 2012

If you face the challenge of adding a second, independently controlled light source to an existing ceiling lamp controlled by a wall switch, you may find that stringing a second power line is impossible. First, you can replace the wall switch by the circuit in Figure 1. Pushing the on switch S1 or S2 for approximately 1 sec inserts the 12V zener diodes D1 or D2 in series with the hot wire of the power line.
