Question 1

Could somebody tell me where I can buy one of these lights please or iff it will be back in stock thank you

Accepted Answer

Yes uk plug

Question 2

It is ridiculous that can’t use this without a timer and if that’s the case why isn’t it included?

Accepted Answer

That is a fair question and there is a good answer. 
1. Typical lamp timers are sold everywhere and many people have one or two sitting around. There are so many types of timers I wouldn’t know what every customer would prefer. 
2. The wide variation of electrical requirements for individual countries. 
3.  I can’t possibly compete with big box stores on pricing so it would drive the cost of the light up for everyone or to keep costs down I would have to include a very low cost Chinese timer that would not be reliable. 
4.  Home automation is becoming very popular, affordable, programmable outlets that you control with your smartphone are taking over typical timers but not every customer wants or has the ability to have that type of timer. 
Sorry for the inconvenience but those are a few of the factors that drove me to my decision.

Question 3

Hi I have a budgie and I was just wondering how many hours a day would this light need to be on for

Accepted Answer

The suggestion is for 10-12 hours. Mines on from 7:30 to 19:30, 7 days a week.

Question 4

Sorry if this is a stupid question but is it absolutely necessary to get a timer to go along side this?!

Accepted Answer

No, you don't need a timer, it just makes it easier so you dont have to remember to switch light on/off.

My bird spends most time in one cage, and that one has a timer. I also have a cage in my office and if I am stuck at my desk for long periods, I bring the bird through so he has company. No timer there, I just switch the socket on, and back off again when he goes back to the main cage.

The specific timer for this light does have a graduated on/off for the light which is a nice touch, but it is more expensive than a standard timer.
