Here is my version. I bought a 6 outlet power strip from Fry's and installed the 24AC relays inside the power strip to control the outlets. I hooked up the relays using a cat5 network cable that I cut one end off.
I then bought a cat5 punch down connector and hooked it up to the controller. I can now easily disconnect the controller from the power strip if the need arises.
It all works great except for one thing. Only outlet 4 works when I tried it. Turns out the store I bought my relays from, gave me 5 120VAC coils and only one 24VAC coil. So I have to disassemble the entire thing, return the wrong relays and get correct ones, then put it all back together. ARGS!!
But outlet 4 works great!!
