I have a streetlight with a CFL in it, and I want to put it on a
timer. I bought an Intermatic EJ500CL, and it specifically says NOT
to use it with starter, compact flourescent or other electronic
ballasts.
oops.
So what do I do? I don't want to put an incandescent lamp out there
because I'll have to change it constantly, and its a pain in the ass.
Is there a light switch wall timer that can be used with CFLs?
It can be used with class "P" ballast.
I am in north america, in case they make stuff for 220 that isn't
available for 110.

Leviton makes one. Model #6124H-W. It costs around 50 bucks, but will work
with any light fixture. It requires a neutral.http://www.leviton.com/OA_HTML/ibeCC...?item=9447§ion...

Um...

what's a neutral?
