Chanukah lights need to burn for at least 1/2 hour after sunset. So, you can light earlier (e.g. on Friday when you need to light before Shabbat) as long as they are big enough candles or sufficient oil to remain lit for 30 minutes after sunset.

The candles must remain lit for one-half hour after early dusk. If they're lit before that time, they should remain lit correspondingly longer.

Should you run your underwater pool lights for at least 1 hour a day?
I think you should. The reason why is that sometimes at night the pool lights should be on to symbolize that it is unnecessary to enter, and what if you walk around your pool and trip? My old swimming pool lights were on at least an hour everyday just in case you don't use the lights for a long time it can stop working. The downside to turning on pool lights is that it wastes electricity, but you don't have to put it on for exactly 1 hour, you can turn the lights on just for a few minutes, or how long you think.
