I've been thinking that it would be nice if I could switch the power to my light source off via micromanager when an overnight run is done so as to save a few hours of bulb life before someone comes in the morning. Does anyone have any suggestions for a device that could do this - essentially just shutting off a 110 circuit - that micromanager might have a driver to?
Thanks for any leads, Scott |

An Arduino board driving a solid state relay should easily do the job.

These are even available at Radio Shack now.
