Perhaps something similar in US.

I had a porch light that I bought probably 10 years ago and it finally

after the light switch was turned off. It was not light sensitive. Kind

another one like that? I cannot make out what it says on the bulb
anymore either.

Hmm thats an interesting setup. I'll have to check further on that one.
Thanks for the headsup on that.


Look for a "spring wound wall switch timer". You insert it into your existing
wall box where the present on-off switch is and just crank the switch to however
many minutes you want the light to operate. I use these in my bathrooms for the
exhaust fans but there's no reason they wouldn't work for your needs. About $26
each at the Borg:

ah yeah now that would work even better. At Home depot too. That
bathroom timer gives me an idea. Thanks for the help!
