Don P asked “Can u make a light bulb turn on and off with a switch” and I am guessing he doesn’t just want to watch me using the wall switch. As his comment was on one of my infrared remote control videos we will use the same infrared switch for the light.
WARNING – Working with MAINS POWER is potentially FATAL
If you have no experience leave this to a professional.
I accept no responsibility for your safety.
REMEMBER – The mains power wires are LIVE unless the plug is removed from the MAINS socket REGARDLESS of whether the battery power is connected to the relay unit.
This is the eBay link I used for the 4 relay Infrared unit but you only need a single relay unit for this task

The battery pack I used to power the switch unit is a 3xAAA pack taken from a cheap torch.
