Would Not RecommendAfter numerous attempts to use the dusk to dawn feature, no joy was to be had. Maybe the timer works, but, I don't need that. I bought 5 of these and will try them all. Too bad. It seemed like such a great idea to eliminate manual operation and having to add sensors on stalks to save a few bucks.

Sensor did not work for Christmas lights
Would Not RecommendMy intention was to use the screw-in light sensor to turn my outdoor Christmas lights on and off. I had two strings of 25 (C9's). I wanted to use the dusk plus 5 hour setting (2 flashes). Only the dusk to dawn setting worked (4 flashes). The sensor burned out totally before the season was over and I ended up throwing the sensor away.

Works like it should
Would RecommendThis works like it should. Depending on whether the sensor is facing out or in, you can control how early/late it comes on. Now I never come home to a dark house in the evening.
