The ShotLight is a convenience tool used to control your light. Because of the standard 120 volt outlet that the ShotLight utilizes, you can plug any electrical home appliance with two states into the outlet box. The Main feature of the ShotLight is the large circular target engraved with a swirl, and the word "WHIRL" across the center. The ShotLight is meant to make your life easier. Simply touch the target, and your appliance should change states. For instance, if your light is on, it will turn off, and vice versa. Use the ShotLight when you are lying in bed, and don't want to get up to turn off your light, or simply use it for target practice.
