Simple Evil TV Remote Possession Device

This prank makes it seem like a TV remote is possessed or broken. Once a user pushes a button on any remote the device will record the code then send it out multiple times. Thus, if a user pressed the channel up button the tv would change channels! several more times!

Step 1: Theory of operation

In simple terms the operation does the following:
1) Wait until an IR pulse is detected
2) Record the IR pulse sent
3) Wait for a second
4) Send the same pulse several times
5) ????
6) Profit!

Great tutorial thanks for making it. It is easy to follow and make. An interesting way to test the IR led is with a digital or cell phone camera. You can see the normally invisible IR led light through most cameras.
