How to make remote control switch for light?

Question

How can I make a remote control for a light? Is there a schematic for it? The light I want to control is not controlled by an outlet.

Answer 1

Just let your light circuit pass thru a magnetic contactor and the contactor may be actuated remotely by light or remote switch or motion activated sensor.

Answer 2

You can check at radio shack. you might want to check at a project or search schematics. if you pulled parts from a remote controlled car, you might make it work. To be honest, I think your question could be better answered if we know more information or had more parameters to work from.

Answer 3

go to home depot and buy a light switch, i will come with easy instructions.  

Answer 4

Just buy one... amazon sells them.  I have one and it's awesome.  I control my fan on it :)
