I had a "parents detector" in the mid-80s when we got the old TV in our room.
Unknown to my parents I did a deviation on the mains of the TV to be able to switch off the TV from my bed when the stuff I put on the way trapped.
For those who may have the reference, it was France, Canal+ times when you had instructional broadcasts on Saturday at midnight and you needed to make out what was going on from a scrambled image. Also the fact that you had to multitask like crazy to not be caught.
