    This is the lamest 'hack' I have ever seen on Slashdot. You can get industrial panel/remote buttons from just about any industrial or electrical supply store. Then you wire up two leads to your reset button.

    I can't wait to see what innovative tinkerer's project comes next on Slashdot. Maybe an LED with brightness control?
