Guest guest Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Finally I ordered my first controller...the CTB-08!!! It is half birthday present and half of my savings....I've been waiting for this day! Any tips or suggestions on mounting and attaching power cords?I still don't get where the grounds all go.... to the power source and from the lights...

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Nice...so you attached the grounds to the metal enclosure? Where did you get the enclosure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I got the enclosure at Home Depot they call it an AC Disconnect.. you just pull out all the insides and modify it to fit the CTB-08's.. check out our website and then under projects followed by AC disconnect.. that should help! If you have more questions.. let me know.. Ill try to help the best i can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 That disconnect box looks like a good, inexpensive enclosure for the CTB08(D). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Yeah it is a perfect enclosure.. mine fits in there nicely.. I think I need to tighten the cord clamp a little bit though because I looked at it last night and it was a little loose. But yeah it is inexpensive too.. under $20 I know maybe even under $10 I don't remember exactly its been so long since i bought it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I was searching and I found something here. Is this anything like it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Yeah that looks similar to it.. but i'm not positive if the dimsions are the same as mine.. Ive tried to search the Home Depot Site but I dont think they list it.. I'll try to stop by there here sometime and see if they have them.. if they do maybe I should pick some up?
