		<description>I bought a timer that replaces the light switch  , that operates three outside light fixtures.All three lights have cfl&#039;s.      the fixtures came originaly with photocells,so when the photocells stopped working I put the timer in.The cfl&#039;s would not work with the photocell but it loves the timer and so do I.I set it once over two years ago. and have not changed a lamp since.The timer cost about thirty bucks at lowes,. You must disconnect the photocell if it is still working in the fixture. </description>

		<description>hey mike i am starting a solar panel sales and installation company in Utah. I like your number crunching, and have done some of my own but would like your input. Hit me back I would really appreciate. thanks  </description>

		<description>Interesting idea, but comes with a host of issues that might be problematic.  At least for me, my dryer runs on natural gas, so I&#039;m not sure I want to pump the exhaust into the house.  The second issue is all the lint that is expelled via the dryer vent.  What you would need is some sort of heat exchanger to transfer the heat from the dryer air to some other clean sources that can reintroduce the heat back into the home.  For those of us living in warm climates, we are trying to get the heat out of the house, so there would need to be some sort of means for diverting based on season.  Sounds like a big but interesting project.          
  
Of course the purists will tell us to go get a clothes line and stop using the dryer all together :-)     </description>

		<description>try looking at recylcing your air. A good example would be to run your dryer vent into your duct work this way you are not wasting all that hot air. </description>

		<description>Danny,   
  
I&#039;m just writing to say that I will not be releasing your comment because I don&#039;t feel it provides any useful information to those trying to learn something about the topic.  Furthermore, I have no first hand information as to Mike&#039;s mental state or political voting history and would be remiss in allowing unconfirmed content on the site.  If you would like to rephrase in a manner that is appropriate for the site and contributes to the discussion instead of picking a fight, I would be happy to post.  If you insist on a fight, please pick one with me.        
  
What I can confirm is that I don&#039;t particularly believe in global warming either.  Keep reading the site and I&#039;m pretty open about that - it&#039;s junk science.  How else do you explain the current cooling trend or ice ages?  I guess it&#039;s hard for Al to give global warming speeches in snow storms, so the new marketing term is climate change.  We go after CO2 emissions because evil businesses creates it, but not Al for flying a private jet all over the world to his conventions.  Hell, even Obama (who is supposed to be green) sent two jumbo jets to Copenhagen to so Michelle could go a day early?  Can any one tell me the pounds of CO2 that emitted?  - Green is a political agenda and I must say I&#039;m sick of it.  Time to look at these people&#039;s actions and not just their words.    
  
In fact, I think the whole climate change concept is largely unmotivating to most; it&#039;s just not tangible enough to get Joe six-pack behind.  What motivates me is the brown air that lingers over our city, the polluted streams, dieing forests, the drastic reduction of sea life in certain regions, and the explosion of people with asthma.  Try and explain that that&#039;s not pollution related.  We have so much to fix that we can see, that I just don&#039;t see how the brilliant people behind the global warming/climate change industry missed there audience so badly.   A shame really, because I for one would like to see less brown clouds; sort of like the skies after September 11th.  Remember how clear everything got within a day or two.  Wonder why cap in trade doesn&#039;t go after the airline industry - weird...  
  
If you have swallowed the Global Warming Bait, good for you, but don&#039;t be a hater because not everyone has - the message sucks and those delivering it, zzzzzzzz.  Our outcomes are similar, my version just doesn&#039;t have the destruction our remaining industry and the heavy taxation on consumers as part of the plan.  I wonder if solar panel makers were exempted from the cap in trade bill... off to do some more research.

		<description>Really depends on the photocell that you use and how you protect the wiring.  The Hampton Bay photocell would not be recommended for external use, however, there are a few more options here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.watthackers.com/wp/more-options-for-installing-dusk-to-dawn-lighting-sensors/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.watthackers.com/wp/more-options-for-in...&lt;/a&gt;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.watthackers.com/wp/more-options-for-in...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;    </description>

		<description>Does anyone know if the electrical codes regulate the installation of this device?  Can the device be mounted outside the fixture, say right on the wall of the house next to the fixture, and wired into the fixture to turn it on and off? </description>
