I think I might have seen a how-to on this somewhere. But I started with no information and got it working.

This is brilliant, building one this week, Its going to work a monster or two in my museum.

Now that's a handy hack!

Im going to use it to lift the door off of my coffin. So I can tune it in to make it trigger at the right moment or I can manually trigger it like I did last year.

Excellent! I will be doing this as soon as I can buy some timers.

i always wondered if this was possible. i just never had the drive to take mine apart... thank you for figuring it out and posting it! there are soooo many uses for this

Great idea ... well done. I can already think of a dozen uses for this!

NICE! Now I just need to figure out what I would use it for

Very nice. This will work perfectly.

I noticed you used an extension cord without a ground........can you use one with a ground ? I didn't see a ground wire at all in your video.
