I've had my breakout box hooked up for a while, but it is currently only supporting my ATO. I have a roll-top canopy with a couple AI Hydra 52's mounted to the canopy. Every time I lift the canopy open to feed I (and more importantly my wife) get blinded. Does anyone know of a switch that I can install on the canopy that will turn off my lights when I open the canopy? I know it can be done, just not sure how to go about this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think a magnetic security switch would do the trick. Like from an alarm system. Radio shack should have them

You can order them on Amazon for practically nothing. I use them with breakout box to turn on the lights in my cabinet when I open a door. Very easy to hook up.
