Trying to finalize my set up. I’d like a timer for day/night and for temperature. I’m not quite sure of the best option for this. Any suggestions?

Building unit based off one I saw on here. I wish I could find it again to credit the original poster. We’re getting there and I’m getting excited!

Will set my new Vision cage up with a thermostat(?) and it works quite well. The lights are on a timer, but I always go around morning and evening and check on all the turtles and tortoises. When I check on the Vision cage, I just hit the adjustment button on the temperature gauge to lower it at night and raise it up manually again in the morning. Piece of cake.

Just run your lights on a timer and a thermostat at the same time. I set my thermostat to cut the basking lamp off at 95 degrees. My LEDs stay on for light on their own separate timer. If ambient never gets too high, your lights will stay on for basking and turn off at the correct time.
