Put a time clock on the transformer. My transformer is in the garage and it would not take much to put an time clock on the 120v side of the transformer. You will need to purchase a 7 day clock so you can program just weekends. #2 put a toggle switch on the wall below the ringy dingy, When you go to bed move to the off position. It is 18v so almost anything would work. |

My house has a wireless doorbell thing (an aftermarket doorbell, its hard wired into the house). The doorbell itself has a small battery and the part that rings inside the house plugs in. When you don't want to be disturbed, it would be easy enough to just unplug the ringer part. |
