How to Control High Tunnel Lights Remotely via Wifi

How to Control High Tunnel Lights Remotely via Wifi

Since I installed the solar panel to get power out to the high tunnel, I have wanted to get insight into how much power the lights were drawing and to control them from the house if I needed to "burn off" some extra electricity so there would be room on the batteries for a sunny tomorrow.

First to note is that I have wifi out to my high tunnel. The signal is weak so I used an wifi extender. After doing some research I found out that the extended wifi network has to have the same SSID and Password as my main wifi network has.
