Abstract: A timer (10) is provided having a housing (11) sized and shaped to support a conventional lamp thereon. The timer (10) also has a storage chamber (16) extending from the peripheral side wall (14) and an electric circuit (21). The electric circuit (21) includes a conventional electric power cord (22) terminating at a male plug (23), a female electric plug receptacle (25) positioned to be accessed through the storage chamber (16), and a controller (26) which controls the electric current passing from the power cord (22) to the female receptacle (25). This construction allows a lamp to be placed directly upon the timer (10) to enable easy access to the power controlling timer (10).

Abstract: An RF remote control system for operating a ceiling fan and its light is disclosed. The remote control system comprises a receiver and two remote controllers, each having different operating characteristics. The remote controllers use radio frequency (RF) transmission to send control signals to the receiver. The receiver utilizes a microprocessor to process the control signals from the remote controllers and to operate the ceiling fan and its light. The receiver also includes a power interruption feature, which allows the operation of the ceiling fan light without the use of the remote controllers.
