Light Switch Lock...for Worn Out or Cheap switches.

thingiverse

Many of the switches in our house are older and worn-out, so they no longer sit flush with the rim of the paddle. So this remix addresses that by adding a protrusion to the flat of the original. So it will still fit just a nicely as the original, but will give some extra push for older, or cheap sunk in switches. Backstory; My 1yr olds new favorite thing is to stand on a dining room chair and turn the lights on and off repeatedly. Well one of the 2 switches in the kitchen goes to a hall light -no big deal- but the other goes to a ceiling fan which is connected to a smart controller that is placed in the attic...guess how the controller is factory reset? If you guessed by cycling it on and off repeatedly then you know how I spent my morning today. I finally got the controller re-paired with Home assistant, everything works just fine, and my toddler...well he is currently quite pissed off. As I type this he is trying as hard as he can to turn that switch while yelling at me. lol
