What do you think will happen (to the the electricity charges at night) if every one does that?

Personally I hope demand will rise enough to make the stupid oppressive darkness-destroying asinine "security lights" the damnpowercompany constantly pushes much less affordable.

It seems unlikely that demand will rise to daytime and early evening levels, however.

I can't make sense of your comment. Can you please clarify a bit?

I don't like the subsidized outdoor security lights that only exist to increase demand for nighttime power. I hope that nighttime demand will increase so that those lights will no longer be economical. I look forward to actual darkness in rural areas as a result.
