I haven't worked much with electronics, but I have been doing some reading and hoping I can find some help here.
Here's what's going on:
I am wanting to place a remote to turn on and off a TV inside a box to be controlled by a toggle switch and an LED push button switch. I want the toggle to turn on the LED & give power to the button, and when the button is pressed the remote fires a signal.
This is what I will probably be using for the remote.
Questions:
The remote by itself is powered by two AA batteries. Would I be able to draw power from them to the toggle/LED? Would I need a separate source?
Would a push button switch even work to fire the remote? (the remote comes with a 6mm tact switch button)
As you can see, I am new at this, and I know this isn't a *serious* project, but any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
