Here's the deal. There is a string of lights on poles in a community connected with URD (208 HID).
They are on a dusk to dawn timer.
The customer now wants 2 of them to go off at midnight and they don't want to dig up the place to add another conductor.
Ideas?

Two come to mind with me.

An X-10 solution ... ugh. (lightning being the biggest issue)

A battery operated timer in the poles that go off at midnight but I don't find that timer suitable for HID. (plenty for 5-15 plugs)

Any other ideas or a link to the battery timer.
