Has anyone built a low voltage panel/control box for their brewing set-up? I haven't found a lot of information or projects for a low voltage set-up. I am currently putting together parts for my project. With that being said I am going to use a couple of Topsflo pumps in my set up and wanted to be able to just plug into the side of my control box. I figured since I was transforming voltage to meet the pump requirements I might as well use the same low voltage for everything else (PID's, switches, etc.)
I would like to run everything at 24v DC. One of the biggest questions I have is how do I take 24v and transform that down to a lower voltage to supply the pumps with the optimum power. I'm sure it is apparent that I don't have a lot of knowledge when it comes to DC. My panel at this point will only measure temperatures and house the two on and off switches for the pumps. I will NOT have the PID's, as of now, controlling anything. Any advice, feedback, or direction would be greatly
