Did I Make a Mistake Purchasing Power Management Software to Use With KM

Here is my use case:

I have 2 Macros setup 1-morning setup and 1-night setup.

The Morning setup I realized recently was pseudo working because I was using the default power management scheduling tool to wake up the Mac then the morning setup Macro would run five minutes later.

But then....

The night setup Macro wouldn't run because the default power management scheduling tool can only schedule two dates and time ranges to wake and sleep. Therefore I bought this Power Manager software to have more control over my Mac's wake/sleep schedule and make both Macros work.

For the Keyboard Maestro Macros, I was using a time trigger that didn't wake the mac at night to run the Macro. My question is: was there a better way to get the Keyboard Maestro macros to execute without using additional software? If so, it would have saved me the $12.95/yr I spent on Power Manager software license?
