Greetings,
I have 2 lights in my yard that I control with
screw-in lightbulb modules. Rather than turning them
on at dusk and off at dawn, I brighten them to 100% at
dusk and dim to 0% at dawn. The lights are never OFF.
I do this because I like the effect of the gradual
brightening and dimming. Does anyone see any harm in
this? If the light is never actually off, am I wasting
electricity or at 0% is trhe light essentially off?
This spring I want to use the same effect on very low
wattage MoonRays garden lighting. What do you think?
