h30, why not post it right here? You seem pretty confident.:smokin:
OK, sorry...common sense dictates that to leave the ballast on at all times, you would have to put the relay inline between the capacitor and the mogul base...i.e. take your light chord and cut it in two, leaving a pigtail off/at the capacitor that can be spliced with the relay that will allow current up the chord to the lamp.
latewood Reviewed by latewood on . 2 room flipflop relay Hello all, new to this site it is full of great peeps and knowledge. I am a hardcore Do It Yourselfer. I am asking this community for some help. I am interested in building a 2 room 4 ballast 8 lamp flipflop relay system. These are super expensive from hydro shops like $400 just for the one I would like to build. I know it works with relays But they need to be strong enough to flip 1000 watt HPS systems. someone must have one and could possibly post pics then we could do a how to on building Rating: 5
