With a timer, you can make it a lot easier to get the kind of light you require.  Many homes and commercial properties are equipped with motion sensor lighting.  This is for safety and security of residents and employees alike. They are great for garages, porches and patios, and will go a long way towards making your life a whole lot easier, especially when paired with a wall switch timer. You can set your motion sensor lights to turn on when the sun goes down.  This will save you from having to remember to turn it on and off at the right time, as will also help cut the cost of your energy bill over time.

A plug-in timer can also do a lot to help you get convenient, hassle free lighting in your home or office. By simply adding a timer to your existing lights, you can control when exactly certain lights will come on, thus saving you from wasting any electricity on lights that are needlessly lit at certain times of the day. You can also use a plug in timer outside during the holiday months to control when your decorative lights go on and off, which will save you money on your electric bill too!
