Leave Pixies on for an entire month?


Recommended Posts

Pixies don't come with a switch.  Should I just leave the Pixies plugged in for the entire month of December, or should they be unplugged when not in use?

I put a Switch between the power cord and the wall plug turn it off each night or if it rains

I installed 8 - SWD 20amp breakers when I put my show power panel in. I have 8 seperate 20 amp circuits connected to 8 GFCI’s (gfcis are for additional safety)

I simply turn each of them off.

SWD - switch duty breakers are marked as such on the breaker itself.

Most my controllers stay on all month and a couple stay on all year.

If they are outdoors or a damp location, leave them on, the warmth will drive moisture away. Cold nights, will condense warm day moisture.

My year round stuff stays on 24 x 7 x 365.  The pixels that are used for Halloween will get powered up in a week or so and stay on till January.  The Christmas only stuff will get powered up in early November and stay powered until January.
