Night Lighting Adjustments

Featured Replies

Hello all -

I cant seem to find any threads on this subject. By default I feel it has to get way too dark for the lights to finally come on.  It would be nice if the lights could be adjusted to come on earlier in the evening & go off later in the morning.

Any insight appreciated.  

Thanks!

Tom
