This ones for a lemon Battery, Brandy beat me to it with the potato one
Brandy many thanks,
I have scored a few brownie points
This is how I used to do it.
1. Screw the bulb into a lamp...
2. Plug the lamp into a wallsocket.
3. Take the potato and use it to flick the socket swith to "on"...
Quite simple really :o)

Remember to throw the potato at the switch to make use of the remote control feature or throw the potato at the bulb to make use of the dimmer switch feature.
