Hello
My new home has 6 soffit lights with CFL bulbs and one with a halogen bulb on the same switch. Will an electronic timer still not work if I have supplied a "resistive" load to the system by way of the halogen bulb? My electrician says this will not work without a huge mechanical time r bolted to my wall.
Thank you kjm

Looks like this one fits your purpose:

Intermatic Grässlin - Electronic Time Controls - In-Wall Electronic Timer - 24Hourandor7Day

And it will handle the mix of loads.
