and i realized putting the 20-4 into a 20-4 would create problems, it would lag the four hours while the other is off, so it might mess with the time of lighting (i.e. turn them off 2 hours early whatever)

but i just mean the point, if i can get a way to make that time is it beneficial?

or do the electric companies not know what time its used,

i live in a 1 bed apt doing about 600 total watts, with fans included.
