I am looking for a replacement for my GE 15077 power strip.
http://www.homedepot.com/p/GE-7-Day-8-Outlet-Power-Strip-Timer-15077/100685866

The 15077 has 4 programmable and 4 always on outlets. The 4 programmable can be set to turn on/off once a day but all 4 together.

I would like to program my moonlights to turn on/off in the morning and in the evening and have my daylights turn on/off once a day.

Is there a single power strip that can do this?

TIA

buy a regular power strip and 2 timers. some timers have multiple on/off cycles.
a lot of members use controllers to control their lights, heaters, pumps and numerous other things.

This one will do what you want. There are 4 always on and 2/2 programmable one set for day and one set for night. You only program on set and the other turns on when it turns off:

Btw edd did you get your powerstrip? Mine came yesterday.

yes it came monday. really fast. my son said it was some different delivery service. and also said it feels like it should cost $8.00. i didn't try it yet.

I actually haven't opened it or tested it yet but the packaging was really nice. I am not sure how it came because they delivered it to work. The reviews I read said it works good so hopefully is ok.

cmatis - are you using this power strip? I called Zilla/Coralife tech support and their explanation was that the day and night outlets just work opposite of each other and you can't set 2 programs for each day on just the night outlets. Also, i think this means that you can not overlap the two for an end of day lighting transition.

considering edd's recommendation - I have set aside the following switch. I don't like having the extra bulk and would prefer to have just one unit with the flexibility.

If anyone has a couple hundred thousand $$ burning a hole in their pocket PM me. I think there is a need in the marketplace for the device that I am looking for. So far I've only found work arounds.

Thanks both of you for your suggestions.
