Position red tab (push down and rotate to desired location) to set 'Time ON'. Similarly rotate black tab to desired 'Time OFF'. Rotate dial to set opposite arrow the current time-of day (black is nighttime, white is daytime. That's it.

Up to 8 hours on. No intermittant or random settings. Turns on at dusk. Have you considered a timer with on and off switching? Little on off plastic red and green tabs?

Wow this is quite an ancient post. So far I've looked over the large sheet of directions and set up a few programmable times. Unfortunately nothing has indicated to me that each of the outlets can be timed individually. As far as custom times, you can set 1 turn on time and 1 turn off time on four different programmable settings. For example, program 1 could be set to turn on at 6 AM and to off at 7 PM while program 2 (if selected) could be set to turn on at 6 AM and turn off at 5 PM.

The "ON" time is adjustable. I'm moving light into a barn because rain got inside the motion-sensor housing with water condensation on the translucent surface. After that, the light only occasionally responded to motion.

Hi Laura, It took me awhile to figure out how to set the timer. (I actually had to read the instructions!) But now it's no problem! Hope this helps, Sarah

The timer sets the off time (1-9hrs) after the photocell turn it on. My two work just fine with a start time seemingly after it gets fairly dark, not just dusk. If you have a night lighting issue you could consider putting a small shield on the door where the photocell is located so it will only see daylight. I have one located about 4 ft below a light and it does not bother the unit when the light is turned on, no mod necessary. Good product at a good price.

Thanks..I kept playing with it, and it finally worked just like you said (all the top lights lit--low, medium, high). I set it for 40 min...it worked great. I loved it. Thanks

This is a 24 hour timer. You can set it for whatever you like. I have the daytime lights turn on from 7:00 am to 8:oo pm and the night lights from 8:00 pm to 7:00 am.

Well, I think you set the clock to the current time ... I would have someone local set the time (I don't think you can choose an actual zone) or else I would count up the hours. For example, if you want the time for Germany (where I am now) and you live in the US on the East coast, then you add 6 hours. But be careful, you will have to have it changed for daylight savings :((( I would get someone local to set the time for you :)) Hope this helps! Feel free to ask again if u have other questions!

Hi Joyce. It isn't easy to do because the directions are worthless! It will set! Just keep experimenting with the buttons while it's in time/date stamp. It's been months sense I reset mine and I really don't remember what sequence of buttons I pushed. Sorry. I wish I could be of more help.

I had to fumble thru the timer until I figured it out, took me about an hour. I have seen other people say that you can email the company and they will send you the instructions. Not sure why they don't include them!Basically, options A B and C in the menu control the blue lights. D E and F control the day lights and G H and I control the moon lights. So set A for the time frame you want the blues to be on, D for the daylight hours and G for the moonlights. Hope that makes some sense.....

There are two sensors inside to the left and right (little round black things), slap some black polish on it. You can now manually control the time. Your Welcome :) Make sure it's unplugged when you do this.

I'm at work right now and doesn't has the unit on hand but this is my memory: Plug the unit to the outlet couple our to get charge. Take unit out and set :For Time: Push the Time butt. to set current time and using Hour & Minute to set.After time set done. Push the On Button to set the time to turn-on with using Hour & Minute Button to set timing you wanted.Same thing to ser the timing off by using Off button. Good Luck

Bad mistake here. Go to setting and turn on "daylight". This thing is gorgeous in daylight as well as night-time!

Mine came displaying 12 hour time, and when I first pressed the button to set it, it switched to 24 hour time. But then about a year later, when I reset it for DST, it switched back to 12 hour time, and nothing I did would switch it back. Sorry I can't help. Somebody is making a fortune off of these clocks, because they have about $5-10 worth of parts in them.

While the timer is active, there is no way to disable the lights. When the timer is not counting down (or up), the lights are not illuminated. I think I read a review once on here from someone who took it apart and disabled the lights somehow. You may investigate that further.

There is a dial on the back. You can set it for, if I remember correctly, 2 minutes, 3, 5,10, 15, and 20. I use mine for basement lighting and set them for 5 minutes - for me this works very well.
