If this is during daylight, that would make sense. When you first apply
power to a photocell, (the thing that turns the lights on and off by sensing
light) it is in the closed or on position, it then senses light and turns
off.

hmmm... I was hoping that the switch had something to do with voltage
and that's why it was shutting off; If that's not it, what would be
causing this behavior? It goes on for 2 seconds then off. If I unplug
it wait a minute and plug it back in, it again goes on for 2 seconds,
then off. Any idea?
thanks!
