Thanks, Maverick, but I believe it only does dusk-dawn operation of lighting. I am looking for the opposite. I want dawn to dusk operation of the load, and shut-off at night.

Their battery and PV are not large enough to run the load 24/7, and they don’t need it to run at night. I am thinking about recommending a photocell to disconnect the load at dusk and turn it back on at dawn. They are not interested in upgrading the PV and battery (too costly). Can anyone recommend a photosensor source, and maybe a model number? Other ideas welcomed… Jason Szumlanski Fafco Solar _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Home Power magazine List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Options & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
