/diy/ - Do It Yourself

a wire wrap I did on a key fob. from some wire out of the microwave, when the keyfobs key link broke off. the other day I was stuck from the alarm system and a loose battery terminal and needed a piece of copper wire to trick the alarm system, since the keyfob would not activate the alarm off for whatever reason and felt like mcguyver when I pulled out of there. Got home and looked it up and realized you can just put the key in and put it in the on position and reconnect the battery in that state to overcome the alarm without the FOB. Then felt slightly less like a master.
