The light fixtures outside my garage and next to front door are dusk to daylight and have LED bulbs.
Was planning to put them on timered switches that would only give them electricy from 5pm to 12:30 so they would only come on from dusk to 12:30. The led bulbs burn so little watts the switches would take 3 years to pay for themselves in savings. So I just let them stay on till daylight.
Replace the fixtures and all bulb to get my electric bill as low as possible.
Got it down so much that replacing my windows with more energy efficient windows would take 8 years to pay for themselve in savings.
Interesting note:
The LED lights don't seem to attract bugs like regular bulbs. Since I changed to LEDs there are no frogs on my front porch or near the garage door lights.
