By unhooking photocell & direct wiring outlets problem was corrected. (I

a
flip of the breaker each night will have to do the lights this year.). I'm
assuming photo cell just couldn't handle load with all the lights. If
anyone
has any ideas or knows of a photocell that would work let me know. I
loved
the convenience of all the lights outside turning on and off each evening
/
morning by themselves regardless of whom was home. 😀 Thanks for all the
help and advice. Merry Christmas ˜ƒï¸ðŸŒ²˜ƒï¸


Given that hardly anyone sees that fault, likely just replacing it with a
new one will be fine.

I realise that its new, but clearly its defective.
