ok matthias have more info on the power bar problem. are you getting sick of hearing from me yet. anyway, tonight i had the problem again with lighting staying on but this time all 3 metal halides stayed on. the leds for these sockets were out. the only way i can get it to reset is change the outlet to 'permanent' and when i save this change i can here the relay click and the led comes on. now this proves that the relay was open otherwise i would not hear it close when i changed the outlet to permanent. so why then did the lighting stay on? only after i again change the outlet from 'permanent' back to the appropriate clock timer did the lighting go out because the settings were to have the lighting off.

actinics are just blue lighting fluorescent bulbs. mine are t5 lamps i'm not sure what honkey sauce are but actinics is just the blue bulbs used to simulate dawn and dusk
