I am interested to know! What do you use to control your refug light?
 
I'm assuming you don't have some type of reef controller that controls your tank and the light you have doesn't have settings capability.....so you simply wish to turn it on and off.

If it were me, I'd use a smart plug. You can buy these as a power strip or as a single controller. I personally use Kasa brand. You simply control the switch (plug), through an app on your phone.


AND, to answer your question, I have an old Fathom LED that has it's own controller.

yeah sorry I should have gave context! I will not have an controller system for probably another year or so
 
This is my high tech sump light controller.
Any timer or smart plug will work.
