I'm sure you could do it with a virtual outlet or a second profile, using TIME rather than MOON... that way if you turned the virtual outlet on manually, the LS would follow a different code than normal.
Tonight I built a breakout box.
yes, you'd have to use a virtual outlet.. you're right, while the lights would gather their power from the EB8, it would still retain control from the lunar sim module... other outlets typically get their power AND control from the EB8..
good point!
ON THE BOB:
If you're using my example, I'd suggest thickening the common neutral wire that connects the tombstones... I had trouble with mine at first (figured out later that because of the way the punch blocks are designed to pinch the sheathing away from the wire, it was spread too far apart to make strong contact with the neutral... I pulled two sets of wires out of their sheathing and braided them together.. worked like a charm (um.. the SECOND time)
