I need something that I can plug a lamp into, that automatically turns it off at 8pm, and on at 8am?

What are these things called?

A timer socket. I'd post a link but I'm on my phone and it's awkward.

Whatever you do, do not buy an analogue one. Those things are strawberry floating sin.

Or at least, I have this one that's 48hrs for some reason, and it doesn't have and 0s printed on it. It's all 2 hr increments, and the notches don't line up with the numbers. And it seems to bend time within a couple of days. Fucksake.

Anyway, cheers for the link. The manual ones are a ripoff in supermarkets etc anyway.

I got a digital 7 day timer. It does exactly what I want, and is easy to use.
