Tired of all those LCD TVs everywhere?
Want a break from advertisements while you’re trying to eat?
Want to zap screens from across the street?

The TV-B-Gone kit is what you need! This ultra-high-power version of the popular TV-B-Gone is fun to make and even more fun to use. It has 4 ultra-high power IR LEDs for awesome range, we’ve had success from more than 100′ away.

Built in co-operation with Mitch Altman (the inventor of the TV-B-Gone) this kit is a great way to learn some electronics skills and build something truly useful!

    I want one for turning off airport TVs, but apparently bringing anything electronic to the airport will get me surrounded by State Police with MP-5s. Sad.
