This feels like a shot in the dark but I figured I would give it a try.
Can anyone help me find an automatic light dimmer? Before you point to B&Q or similar DIY store and say there they are let me clarify what I mean by automatic light dimmer.
Basically I’m looking for this:
http://www.thebirdroom.co.uk/shop/15/bulblux-auto-timer...
However as you can see by the price its very expensive for what it is and it looks a lot like there hand made by bob in the back of a shed. On top of that I’m not keen on buying from a site I’ve never heard of or don’t know if there reputable.
An ideal response would be for someone to come back with a link to Amazon I could buy from but I’ve looked and looked and I can’t see anything like what I want there.
I’m open to other suggestions to try rather than a device like I have linked above. What I need it for is to have a light come on at a preset time every day to help the canaries in my aviary think the sun is setting later then it really is. I already have a timed switch which comes on at a preset time but it’s the dimmer part that I really need and can’t find for a reasonable price or reputable store. I need a light source that will come on full beam while the sun and daylight is still there, continue to stay on for say an extra hour once the natural daylight has gone then gradually and slowly dim itself down to nothing like a setting sun, then turn on again at the pre-set time the following day to rinse and repeat.
Any help appreciated.
