  You should plug the live wire side to the relay instead of the neutral. That way when the circuit is open, the live side won't be power and it's much secure. Otherwise the current could still make it's way to the natural ground (like sticking a fork on the live side of the outlets :P ) whether the relay is on or off.

  All of the stuff that you have done in most of your videos are extremely helpful. Some of them I just enjoy watching because I can't use them. I'm going to have to fly you to Texas to help me do a lot of things. Let me know when you need a ticket. Lol

  Thank you for the video. As an electrician I would advise you to never break the neutral/ground &nbsp;( - ) in a 120v circuit as shown at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dek4lpPR_h0&amp;t=63">1:03</a> in your video as this could cause a deadly situation. Always break the hot ( + ) and keep your neutral/ground &nbsp;( - ) constant.

  The frm01 is awesome!! Another fantastic timer module is the XY-LJ02. I tend to use these a bit more often

  Great idea for repurposing this module.

  Excellent idea. You could also use a D1 mini with a relay shield. It would give you a lot more flexibility/programmability and would cost about the same, depending on where you buy them.

  Very excited by this one - just used the link &amp; ordered a couple controllers. &nbsp;We&apos;ve got several animated props that can be improved with this.

  Big fan, keep up the great work, however- that open board sitting on a table made me super nervous, especially without a junction box and 120v a finger slip away.
