Re: How should we wire the photoswitchs?
Understand the wiring setup for these things 100% based on the great thread here ... I was wondering if you could gang all three photo switches (brown & blue wires) onto a single 12V PDB (red/black) using either a terminal block or solder splice.

Basically, the three blue sensor wires ganged together and spliced with single 18AWG run to PDB ground. Same for three brown sensor wires to partner PDB 12v. run.
