Hello Everyone...
What kind of electrical component would you use to turn on & off 120 vac devices, with at least 10 available amps? I've looked at Solid State Relays like this one, https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10636? and I've looked at Contactors like this one, http://www.comfortgurus.com/product_info.php/products_id/2617
Any other ideas or better recommendations?
I'm building an Arduino Uno R3, lighting and temperature controller... Where you can plug your lighting into one 120 vac outlet and fans into another 120 vac outlet... and it will turn the lights and fans off and on as programmed...
