Christmas lights, on in the morning or not? - POLL

[ExtraSlow]

Pretty simple, do you turn on your exterior Christmas lights in the morning or not?

Either by timer or manually.

See poll

Photocell timer.

On at dusk for 4-6 hours...then off.

Starting Mid December.

That new firework animation in the trimlite app has got to be pissing off some of my neighbors. Got my shit running from dusk till dawn lol.

[pheoxs]

I usually run mine until 11pm then off until 6am to sunrise.

[Tik-Tok]

Timed just like my backyard lights. 6:30am to sunrise, then sunset to 11pm

This but only because my photocell timer doesn’t allow two schedules. Otherwise I would add 6am-sunrise

Starting Dec. 1st (maybe earlier this year as the kid is a huge fan of them) 7am till sunrise + sunset till 10pm. All are on soffit plugs with wifi switch.

5pm till 7am

I put night only because I'm usually 5pm to midnight. I usually start Dec 1, but with the Gemstones I've started a bit earlier the past couple years.

Accent lights on year-round also, dusk to midnight.

However, I'm not against morning lights. Generally the only times I do mornings is if I wake up and it's super foggy or something, then I'll throw some lights on just for kicks, but I'm coming around to being more of a morning guy in general.


But last year starting Dec 1 I also manually set up each day of the week to be a different light pattern. I'll pick out 7 different patterns on Sunday night and preprogram the week to be a different one each night. May start earlier with the patterns this year because there's a shit-ton of options.

Yeah...mine is dial select. One or the other up to 8 hrs I believe. Or sunset to sunrise.

[vengie]

Timer. 6pm-> 6am

[BavarianBeast]

5-10pm is fine, fuck off otherwise… I don’t need your lights that nobody is looking at shining through my bedroom window at 2:00am.

That firework animation if it's the same as wled. It's pretty cool for a bit.
Had it running for new years eve a few hrs before midnight.

I'm dusk to 1am.
5:30am-7am (mostly for people walking to the bus or UofC).
Solid colors though.

[schurchill39]

Sunset to sunrise here. Typically the accent lights but when we are feeling festive then we run colours. I don't do animations though.

Speaking of lights, I've moved to a podominantly "white" neighborhood earlier this year. Is it normal for white people to keep their outdoor lights on all night?

[ExtraSlow]

The guy above you does.

Yes. It’s the rich people look I think. I’ve been working on my outdoor lighting game but pale in comparison to the rich folk.

[Doozer]

I leave the outdoor lights on for the cameras. The night mode isn't bad, but the extra light is better.
