"Computer, lights to 50%"

If you're a fan of Star Trek then you are, demographically speaking, quite possibly a fan of technology and convenience. Or a lazy sod, as your ex-wife might put it. Therefore the idea of a voice-operated, plug and play control unit for your lighting probably appeals to you more than others.

The Star Trek Voice Operated Dimmer, once plugged in, will respond to commands such as "Lights, 50 percent" and "Lights, off." As a bonus, Majel Roddenberry (the voice of the computer herself) will talk back to you in response. There is also an "auxiliary lighting feature", just in case you find yourself entering a gassy nebula with a super human madman on your tail.

No word on what happens if you say "Zero-Zero-Zero-Destruct-Zero", but it might be an interesting and fun $40 experiment to try and find out.

Ahh, laziness.
You've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
