Power Strip/Timer

[smeeks]

Can anyone recommend a good Power Strip/Timer? I'm looking for something to regulate my day vs. night lighting. The two that I keep finding are Coralife (really bad customer reviews), and Newtek (can't find any customer reviews at all. Thanks!

I'd just buy a couple seperate timers, and something like this:

and a couple timers from HD or Lowes.

they also make little 1 foot power cord extensions so you can use all the slots on the powerstrip.

This is exactly how I have mine setup. I bought a couple of appliance timers from Home Depot and standard power strips. Plugged the power strips into the timer and am able to control my whole system on a day/night cycle.

The nice thing about the powerstrip I posed are that the outlets are 3 inches apart.

I just built my own so timers fit where I need them.
