Looking for a light to illuminate under my stand so I can see my sump and equipment better. Looking for something that can handle the environment from the sump. Not looking for anything for fuge or corals. Thanks!

I use water proof LED strips and magnetic door sensors. They are powered off my Apex EB832, but you can also just get a second power supply

I do the same with just windows magnets and a breakout box. You simply wire them to breakout box, and when the doors open, you write code so the power goes on.
Code in my apex for the switch on the EB the lights are plugged into:
Set OFF
If Sw1 OPEN Then ON
If Sw2 OPEN Then ON
I dont have the exact link but look on amazon. they are pretty basic switchesCan you link the magnetic door sensors you use and how you use them with the apex?
I use these and love them. Motion activated

+1 nicely done!Beautiful sump!
I had this and gave up on it. It’s very bright but uses batteries up too quickly for my taste. I switched to a set of Panasonic enloop aaa rechargables a date same result. I swapped to a under cabinet plug in strip I found at Home Depot. I’ve been very happy with it.I just switched my refugium lights from 5k spot bulbs and needed something to see better than the red lights allowed, so I'm giving these cheap battery powered leds a try.
So far they work great. Just need to remember to turn them off. I don’t seem to be able to copy a link from my phone. At HD it’s the Commercial Electric led plug in linkable strip. The 18” was $24.97. Available in both smaller and larger sizes.
