If you happen to have $299 just burning a hole in your wallet, the bitplay BANG! from Dynamism will really class up your home (or not). It’s a lamp that is controlled with a gun. Point the gun at the lamp, pull the trigger and bang, out goes the light and the shade cocks to one side. Pull the trigger again and the shade straightens up and the light goes back on. The remote-control pistol can work up to 49 feet away from the lamp, which has a fabric shade and a painted iron base. I think I’ll stick to the Clapper…
