I’m trying to do a automation ( on my desktop) so a light comes on when someone come home between 10pm and 4am I can get it to take the 4am time but it won’t let me put the start time in, doesn’t matter if I use 24hr clock or 12hr clock any help would be appreciated

What if you reverse the card and try the opposite: is not between 4am and 10pm (on the same day)?

Which browser do you use. I had problems with Mozilla and I had to install a chrome compatible browser (I chose chromecast).  
Just an idea as I do not remember, what worked and what did not work.
