Turn a household lamp into a strobe light.

A strobe light is a light that blinks on and off intermittently. Turn any light in your house into a strobe light by connecting it to a strobe light power converter. A strobe light converter plugs into a wall outlet and has a standard two-pronged input. Some strobe light converters have a dial so that you can change the frequency at which the light blinks on and off.
