I went back to your first post and I'd love to know how you got your ks5000s to interface with your controller. I thought they only controlled ac infinity lights natively. I use their smart plug to control my lights but that only gives me on and off not sunrise and sunset. Have I missed something?

That sucks. Could you build an automated watering system? It's pretty easy and you'll never look back.

Before I start looking, any recommendations to water 15 gal smart pots? I average 3 gal each every 3rd day. Then there's the 7 gal plastic. That one gets a gallon.

It was really simple. I ran the telephone cord in tandem making them both remote, then to the controller. I ran both ballast to a dual timer that is set to on and then plugged it into a smart plug. The timer was just for a dual plug. I only had to make one setting since they are working together. There's prolly the right way to do it but it works lol20240613_095554.jpg20240613_095614.jpg

Really frustrated today. One of my closest friends, a vet that has pretty bad ptsd, got passed off at me for recommending he get a tech guy for his ac instead of relying on me to fix it. I told him I couldn't. I've helped him with over 50k over the past few years, building a beautiful fish pond for him, teaching him and supplying him with whatever he needed to grow his own, given him jars and jars....He stopped me from leaving and pretty much looked into my eyes like I was his dog daring me to bite or growl. Heda broken me in half if I even flinched. Everything I had was his if he needed it. I'm a humble guy that will stop to help anyone. If I have it and you need it, it's yours. There was no build up to this. Both sides of this story, he was 100% wrong. His wife asked me to forgive him and that comes easily. I've never asked anything in return. Am I wrong that the one time I ask for something it be that he never contact me again and basically fuk off? These are people that consider me and I them, family. Sorry to be a buzzkill, just don't really have anywhere else to air this out.
