How do I make my dome light fade away when you shut the door?

i seriously think i do

i was first licensed as a radio amateur before i was out of high school in 1966. I spend 6 years in the u.s. Navy maintaining tacan and ground controlled approach radar (gca, or precision approach radar--par)

caps and timing circuits are "what make radar work." i used to have a very good understanding of rc time constants

in my later years, i've repaired and modified a considerable number of amateur radio "linear" power amplifiers, all using very high voltage power supplies, and all using some fairly large filter caps in the power supply. We're talking anywhere from 2000-8000 volts dc across, say, 20-40 mics of capacitance. In other words, it can kill yer ***.

My point was..................and i still stick by it, ..............that if you just strap a huge cap across the dome light switch, it will probably "fix the switch" in short order.

dude!!! You were in the navy when captain crunch was an ensign!
