Hello Nate,

Just for your information, are you familiar with this ingeneous remote
switch solution designed by Rick Clark:

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

Many thanks for the props. I made a slight change in the original design
so that it incorporates a LEGO rubber band rather than getting power
directly from the motor shaft. It didn't increase the size at all, and
eliminated an intermittent motor-stalling problem I was having. I'll try
to post an update in the next few weeks.

PS. Just to be clear, this is referring to a remote SWITCH solution.
When I read MM's post (too quickly, in hindsight), I thought he was
referring to my remote DECOUPLING solution, which Nate had already
posted about. This is because I'm a dunderhead.
