OK, just don't want you to fry anyone or burn the place down. What
sort of timer are you looking for? It seems to me that there are
dozens of them. <br><br>

A quick Google doesn't find any direct-wire single-gang switches with
built-in timers, which would be neat. Do you know of any? There's an ugly
floodlight already switched that I'd like to remove, and if I can
repurpose the wiring to that into a junction box with the new light
wiring, and replace the switch with a timered switch, that would be quite
close to "right".<br><br>
Heck, I might even get excited enough to buy some rigid conduit for the
Romex instead of leaving it exposed :-)<br><br>
