Thank you akriss for the quick reply , but I only want to control the power of the 5v leds. It looks like powertail2 controls 120v power

Hello , I was able to install ambilight on my 70" tv . It works great but when I turn off the tv the lights come with the rainbow colors and stays like that. I'm trying to turn off with the USB on the tv with a relay . I'm thinking if it is possible to use the 5v from the tv usb to power the relay so when the tv stars it gives power to the usb , starts the relay, that is connected to the "+" of the leds and makes the connection to turn on the lights. My question is i'm not a electronic guy and I don't know if it will damage the tv or the lights . should i use something else ?
This is the relay i'm using

Thank you very much
