This step can make your iCylinder a hazard, so follow it correctly. You have to hack an extension cord in this step. This may be old hat for most of you, and i don't want this project to sound like it's as ticking time bomb about to go off, but i don't want to get sued, so you continue at your own unlikely risk. Enough with all this safety, time to start making. Split the cord like in step 5 four inches from the end of the cord where the three little wall jacks are, and tape the non-split end of the cord so it looks like the first picture. Find and cut the middle of the hot wire and strip both ends, like in the second picture. Take the lightswitch and bend the two ends where the lightwitch would attatch to the wall and bend them down with the needle nose pliers. Attatch the lightswitch onto the two hot bolts like in the third picture. Finally, tape the outside of the black box with electrical tape to keep everyting else safe. make sure that the bolts are completely covered. The final product should like that in the fourth picture.
