High Voltage; Done & Tested

I finished wiring and mounting all the little bits in the enclosure. Testing everything was nerve-wracking.
First the Power supply. No smoke. No fire.
Then the relay board (Which I finally got working when I realized the transistor in my opto-isolator wasn't powerful enough to trip the relay. Upgrade that and Viola!). No smoke. No fire.
Then came the "All the Marbles" test. The power outlet. Plugged in a light. Tripped the relay. No smoke! No fire! Light's on!

Very exciting!
