How to time your Christmas lights

If you’re trying to create a holiday display to wow people driving through your neighborhood at night, putting your lights on a timer is a simple way to ensure you’ll get maximum exposure even when you’re not at home. If you want to make sure you’re not wasting money by accidentally leaving the lights on during the day, a timer can help with that too.

Put simply, a timer is a low-cost item that can help you get the most out of your holiday LED display and ensure that you’re using energy even more efficiently. We offer several different models, which offer flexibility based on how elaborate your display is and how many light strings you need to connect.

• This simple outdoor lighting timer comes with one outlet. The dial allows you to set your lights to come on at dusk and to go off at dawn, or after a certain number of hours if you don’t want to keep them illuminated all night.
• This two-outlet timer allows you to program two different holiday lighting circuits simultaneously. It allows more flexibility for more complicated display, and offers up to two dozen programmable cycles.
• If you need even more power, this six outlet stake timer
  comes with flip covers to protect the outlets from the weather and a circuit breaker to maintain safe electrical connects and help ensure that you don’t overload your power source.

  Hooking your lights to a timer is an easy solution to give you piece of mind and a little extra money back.
