Occupied-Light

Description

(This mod is from 1998)
A restroom usually has a lock or something similar to give you some privacy while taking a dump. But this restroom didn't, and that's quite ok (not that I'm a pervert) because otherwise this mod wouldn't exist. The best mods are created due to some missing infrastructure. The lock isn't missing, it's unusable because the house is being distorted by gravity (a common problem with old houses, the door frames are bent but the door itself isn't. The lock doesn't work anymore which leads to modding activities like filing, grinding etc.). Let's go back to the actual mod: Now that the lock is broken it would be nice at least to know if the restroom is free or occupied, this is achieved by the small light which is lit when you turn on the light. (obvious)

besetztlight2.jpgThe coolest restroom light ever made! (there's the power supply in the background.)
besetztlight3.jpgThe power supply mentioned before. It is only electrified if the light is turned on, so what is the 3-way splitter for? It was there before but I used it to power the occupied-light.
besetztlight4.jpgThis is the transformer for the small light in a very professional case, a sort box (probably from the 70s according to the color) and YES, the white thing is a cable tie that keeps the transformer in place. The switch can be used to enable or disable the occupied-light feature.
