Voice Controled Click Lamps

We have a couple of floor lamps from Ikea. They have two lights in each, and a switch for each light. Let's control them remotely.

Story

Electricity can kill you. Do at your own risk!

This project is based on the project from Ron - "Listen to Me".

Also look at Greg's "Lend me your ears" project for more details on how to set up the Android Phone (6.0 required), or getting Arduino IDE set up.

I've essentially taken these concepts and applied them to my Ikea lamps (like this one).

The original sketch is here:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rondagdag/relay-click/master/arduino-sketch/relayClick5/relayClick5.ino

I made a few slight modifications, added a button for each relay (so that I can turn on/off lamp without voice control as well), and attached each bulb to the click board to achieve an awful looking lamp that I can remotely control.

I'm working on designing a 3d printed case to cover the original buttons, and if I get it right and it looks ok, I'll post that here, too! (I'm still trying to work through powering the Arduino without a huge power brick).
