Integrate the lights and pump to a power strip that can be controlled via app.

[x] Purchase IOT outlet(s)
[ ] Look into DIY option

Purchased a pack of two IOT outlets. Once testing with the pump and lights, that will determine if I need/want to get another pack or an IOT power strip instead

I don't currently have a soldering iron available, so this might not be the avenue to go down. I have one back in PA, but it would be after Thanksgiving for me to have it along with resistors, cables, etc. that could keep me from spending large amounts of money on these materials.

I'm going to look into the IOT outlets more and see if this is more reasonable time and cost-wise

DIY option looks way more expensive, so an IOT strip or outlets seems like the best avenue
