The wattage rating of a timer is governed by the manufactures specification. As long as the light bulbs wattage rating is not higher than the timers rating, the timer will be alright to use in the circuit. The circuits load is what governs the wattage of the circuit.
A motion sensor light typically uses around 1-20 watts of electricity, depending on the brightness and type of bulb used.
A typical Scalextric set uses about 15-20 watts of electricity when in use. This is equivalent to the power consumption of a small LED light bulb.
The amount of electricity a security light uses in a given period of time depends on the wattage of the light and how long it is turned on. The formula to calculate the electricity usage is: Power (wattage) x Time (hours) Energy Used (watt-hours).
No and yes. A 120-volt plug-in timer connects the line voltage to the timer and to the switch that is operated by the timer, so you can't use it directly for a 12-volt light.However, if you use the timer to supply power to a step-down transformer, you can run a 12-volt light off the transformer (that's how most low-voltage landscape lighting timers work). If you don't need much current, you could even plug a 12-volt AC adapter "wall wart" into the timer. Otherwise, you would have to open the timer and modify it so that the micro switch is completely isolated from the 120-volt supply and bring it out to connectors for a 12-volt supply. Make sure you know what you're doing and also don't exceed the current capacity of the switch.
None. Light bulbs use electricity, they do not create electricity.
To set up a timer for the light in your room, you can use a plug-in timer or a smart light bulb with a timer function. Simply plug the timer into the outlet or install the smart bulb in your light fixture, then program the timer to turn the light on and off at specific times. This allows you to automate the lighting in your room without having to manually switch it on and off.

Generally, yes. You are powering the clock and probably the timer circuits.

because light bulbs use electricity ,and candles use fire, and electricity last longer
LEDs do not work on all timers. This is also the case with many energy saving bulbs. The timer lets enough voltage thru to partially light the LEDs and energy saving bulbs. LEDs will light fully when the timer is "on", but will continue to light dimly when the timer says "off". Energy saving bulbs will have a dim flicker when "off" thru a timer. I have not found a timer yet that solves this problem. If anyone knows of a solution I'd love to be able to use energy efficient lights with the convenience of a timer.

Lighting typically uses electricity to power light fixtures such as lamps, light bulbs, or LED strips. How much electricity is consumed by lighting depends on the type and wattage of the light source, as well as the duration of use. Choosing energy-efficient lighting options can help reduce electricity consumption.
