Makes it that much more fun, doesn't it?
I'll keep it up, and plan to expand. My family absolutely lives it!

Well, they actually love it, I'm not so sure they live it.....
Hey Fragmatic JR. I love that switch panel! Im curious as to how you connect the electronics to it. my wiring is pretty much a birds nest and it is in a difficult place for me to reach. when I need to turn off certain things and not others, (for instance. flow off, lights heaters on) its very complicated so I have just been turning the entire surge protector off.

Mike,
My dad built that, but I modified it. If you have any electrical experience it isn't to difficult. Basically think if it as if the electrical outlet was the load (or light/fan). Run the common through one side of all the outlets in series. Then run the power leg to the switches, and the switch output to the power leg side of the outlet it will control. That's it, in short.
It makes that control much easier.
