Holiday lights time to turnoff

Anonymous
What is best time to turn OFF holiday outside lights? Run them dusk to midnight? Or what range is the neighborhood best time?

I go running early-ish and I love it when people have timers on for holiday lights in the morning. For ours, they go off at 11 and come on at 5 am.

Why not get an outlet with daylight sensor and let them run all night? If you don’t go overboard and use led lights it shouldn’t use too much energy

It’s just kind of rude imo. And bad for wildlife. Not a huge deal but we have a timer so I just set them for 5 to 10 or 11.

On the Christmas tree I also have them come on for a couple hours in the morning because I love coming downstairs and seeing them.

Mine go off at 10 (last dog walk of the night) and back on from 5-6:30 am because I think it's pretty in twilight.

My neighbor leaves them on all night, all year round. I hate that.

10pm inside, 11pm outside. Except Christmas night when they stay on.

Ours stay on all night, but it's just a couple nets over the bushes.

We have a huge display of many lights. They are timers and are only on from 4-11pm, and then again from 6-7:30am (simply because our neighbors have commented how much they like seeing them on their way to work in the morning).

I'm not worried about the cost as they are all LED. I just do it because I don't want any of our neighbors to be bothered by the glow of our yard coming their windows while they try to sleep.

4 pm-11 pm (location with early sunsets)

6 am-7:30 am

Like PP above, we have early birds out on our street and everyone always comments on the morning lights. I keep mine on later in the evening because my DD sometimes comes home late from an activity and I don't want her to miss the lights.
