So yea, I’m a geek, proud of it!

I even have my own Hal-9000 unit sitting on my desk keeping me company as I write this! All of the parts are available at your local Radio Shack and all for about $15.00 and about a half hour of your time.

  1. 3″ x 7″ Project Box
  2. 120v Super Bright Neon Bulb with Housing
  3. 120v 3a Microtoggle SPST or SPDT
  4. Power cable of your choice

Solder it all together power cable to center post on toggle switch, switch to bulb, bulb to neutral on power cable.

Put it in a nice box and flick the switch and viola, you have a good little HAL-9000 unit to place on your desk!

Well I decided I didn’t like the small lamp so I installed a larger one. Looking much better!
