that's pretty cool. but it's all X10, so it wasn't something that would be extremely difficult or expensive to implement.

I'd have to have a covered toggle or covered illuminated pushbutton instead

The key would also have to be on a ball chain.

also, i would go all government-nuclear-trigger style

two keys, i have one, roommate has the other

covered toggle switch

both keys have to be turned and the switch has to be flipped on for it to activate


or even better... how about a numeric keypad... or biometrics

also i wouldn't have done this with x10, i would have used xbee's or something<!---

And you'll need a 555 timer to differentiate that both switches are turned within 1 second of each other or it won't activate the switch.
