Not for throwing lightswitch raves.

The Cheat's Lightswitch is a special lightswitch Strong Bad installed below his regular lightswitch to accommodate The Cheat's small stature. It only appears in a few of the Strong Bad Emails, most notably in techno, where The Cheat used it, along with his glowstick, to throw his own Lightswitch Rave, against what Strong Bad says about the lightswitch's usage, to turn the lights on and off and not so lightswitch raves could be thrown. The sign above it sometimes says "The Cheat's Lightswitch" and other times simply "The Cheat."

The lightswitch is featured on Disc 1 of the strongbad_email.exe 3 DVD Set in the opening sequence. Strong Bad accidentally switches on The Cheat's lightswitch when he walks into the room. Strong Bad says "Wrong switch" after hearing The Cheat's techno music and the lightswitch rave starts up with The System Is Down. The animation is done in 3D, and it would seem that Strong Bad flips on the top lightswitch, which is not The Cheat's lightswitch.
