    I'm using it to light a bird cage. I wanted the lights to go
along pretty much with day and night cycles for the area we are
in, and was going to use timers and change the settings every
couple of weeks or whatever, but even if I got that going
smoothly a power failure would mess things up. So the idea of
letting the sun do it since that's what I'm trying to simulate
seemed like the best way to go, and still does.
