I have a light set to go off at 9pm. How do I set up a manually activated event to delay the light out event by an hour?

What you do to turn the light off an hour later will depend on the specifics of what you want to have happen. If you just want to the light to go off at 10 instead of 9, then you could create another event that automatically turns the light off at 10.
You will also have to add an action to the event that turns off the light. The extra action will turn off the virtual device so the default condition is reset.Mike____________________________________________________________ __________________

Thanks to Michael for pointing out my poor reading comprehension on the OP. Michael's idea of a virtual device is good. I would handle it with a virtual device as well. I created one called "9:00PM Lights out" and used it as a condition in 2 events. When the virtual device is off the second event will turn the light off at 8:00PM. When it is on the first event will run, turning it off at 9:00PM.
