I have some mains connected garden lanterns connected to an electric timer
to switch them on and off.

as the time of nightfall changes through out the year, where could i find
some list of nightfall times; so i could just reset the timer at the
beginning of every month. thanks

If you go to the local 5 day forecast you can have loads of innocent
amusement reading works of speculative fiction, and also see a list of
sunrise and sunset times for each day.

thanks to all. i did not want to reset the timer each day. is there some
year long list so i could write down a time for say the beginning of each
month and then reset it monthly. also is it dark at the given sunset time
or should my lights go on for say an hour after sunset? since i really only
want them to come on when its quite dark. thanks for any further advice.

Could you not just use a dawn to dusk sensor.

but it would have to be set up outside. (extra bother). i did have one
years ago it just never seemed very sensitive or accurate somehow.
