Oh now you're being silly Steven, do you really want your fridge to have a SIM card? 

:-)

But if you wanted that it sure would be easier to set up with an electric fridge. 

Yeah, there are sim based remote relays. And i saw somewhere on the web a guy using one to do remote start on propex.

I have a simple little rf based wireless remote I thought would be fun to use with the propex. But then I though maybe I could use it for perimeter lights. Haven't done either yet.
