Windell writes – “Turn off that television in classic style! Here we show you how to hack a TV-B-Gone into the case of a vintage television remote control, such that the original on/off button instead activates the TV-B-Gone. We also modify the power supply so that it runs off of a regular 9 V battery, instead of a set of lithium coin cells.” – Link & photos.

We sell the TV-B-Gone in the MAKE store and this isn’t the only project you can do with it, auto-repeat in a hat and increasing the range are just a few…
