Question
For someone who arrives late at night, and his custom is to light his Hanukkah lights outside the house, should he light inside the house that night, so that he’ll be able to light with a blessing?
Answer
Shalom Rav
According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi Avraham Fried, shlita, one should light outside with a blessing until dawn.

See Azmera Leshimcha, issue 228, in detail, that one can rely on the opinions that even after people have left the market, one can light with a blessing.
