    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_starter

    A remote starter is a radio controlled device, which is installed in a vehicle by the factory or an aftermarket installer to preheat or cool the vehicle before the owner gets into it. [1] Once activated, by pushing a button on a special key chain remote, it starts the vehicle automatically for a predetermined time.

  5. DC connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_connector

    The polarity for 12 V DC sockets is center pin positive (+), outer collar negative (−). Reversed polarity will damage some electronic devices. Although the nominal voltage of a 12 V lead acid battery is 12 V DC, when the engine is running the car's battery charging system will bring the system voltage to 13.8 V DC or higher. [10]

  6. Wireless light switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_light_switch

    Wireless light switches eliminate the wire from the light to the switch location. This is useful in remodelling situations where new wiring can be a hassle. Rather than tearing down a wall to gain access to the wires, a wireless switch can be used. This avoids any need to access wires and makes remodelling fast and simple.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightbulb_socket

    A lightbulb socket, lightbulb holder, light socket, lamp socket or lamp holder is a device which mechanically supports and provides electrical connections for a compatible electric lamp base. [1] Sockets allow lamps to be safely and conveniently replaced (re-lamping).

  9. Light switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_switch

    The toggle light switch was invented in 1916 by William J. Newton. [2] As a component of an electrical wiring or home wiring system, the installation of light switches is regulated by some authority concerned with safety and standards. In different countries the standard dimensions of the wall mounting hardware (boxes, plates, etc.) may differ.
