Lighting control really serves 2 purposes. One thing it does is eliminate "wall acne." Why have banks of light switches when a single-gang set of buttons will perform the same task?

The other thing lighting control does is allow you to turn on and off groups of lights at the push of a button, or automatically at a certain time. Specific lights can be programmed to come on at dusk, or off at dawn, or as part of "scenes" such as Goodnight, Entertain, Evening, etc.

​

Start small by automating just your exterior lighting. Have it come on at dusk and off at dawn. Grow it by automating the lights you use most often.
