What I'm trying to do is essentially make a strobe light. I have a lighting machine what uses 110 for the output for the lights to create lightning. I also have a 100w led that runs on dc 34v. I'm trying to find a relay with a small footprint that will be fast and play nice with everything.

I'm considering an option from TURCK but it is pricey.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

Digikey has lots of options but you're going to be looking at more money for a 120v one (https://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/phoenix-contact/2903336/277-10093-ND/4755345)
than a 24vdc one (https://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/phoenix-contact/2903359/277-10083-ND/4755335)

Or you could solder one in yourself for the cheapest (https://www.digikey.ca/product-detail/en/kemet/EC2-24NU/399-11037-5-ND/4291103)
 
Finder makes a nice terminal block relay that I use a lot. Comes in mechanical or solid state, various voltages as needed. Also re-branded as Allen-Bradley.

Lots of companies make something similar.
 
As Rupej pointed out. I carry spares around with me when commissioning: https://ab.rockwellautomation.com/Relays-and-Timers/Terminal-Block-Relays
