I searched and found some useful threads on this topic but my situation is where I want the lights is on the other side of the pool and its a long way from my aqua link. Are there any wifi solutions to this problem anyone can think of? I have power and lights over there, just want to connect them to the aqua link but prefer not to have to run conduit 150' to do it? Thanks in advance.
hooking up some restaurant style string lights to my aqua link?

Does the power outlet you want to connect to have a breaker in your Aqualink power center? If so, you can set that outlet to be controlled by a relay and switch it on/off with the Aqualink control system (including adding it to the scheduler or dusk to dawn timer). I do this same thing with low voltage landscape lights connected to an outlet that I control with Aqualink using the "extra aux" solar controller.
