Hey there again, well I got a nice LED light on my back wall now, thanks for the responses on that issue. It's working well on a photo switch that was only like $14 or something. But now I am interested in switching on all the front Metal Halide lights with a photo switch like this. Right now they are on a timer, which is of course subject to change with the seasons and is often either wasting electricity or not on when we need it. We have 17 400w metal halide bulbs though, and by my calculations that could be around 60 amps / 7500 watts. What kind of hardware would I need to switch this on and off with a photocell? I'm guessing a relay is necessary, but not sure where to look to find what I need.
Thanks for any pointers!
