Yes! These are amazing! I got a simple sunlight lamp and a 2 dollar timer to do the same thing! Game changer!

EDIT:

A little more detail I told a commenter just now-

One cheap way to try tho would be to pick up a full spectrum UV lightbulb and throw it in a regular lamp. The bulb should only be like 7 bucks just make sure it is full spectrum not broad spectrum.

The timer can be any old outlet timer available at Home Depot, Walmart...ect. Mine was only 3 bucks. It looks like a little wheel and you just depress the buttons for the times you want the lamp on. Have the lamp itself switched on at all times and the timer will handle actually making it go on at the selected time and off again once that time has passed. (Mine clicks on at 530 and off at 830, all on it's own.) Just set the timer to go off a half hour before you need to be up and then an audio alarm on your phone at the latest time you can rise as a backup.

If you have a lamp to put the bulb in all of that should be like 10 bucks total. I only switched to an actual purpose-built sunlight lamp because it was brighter. It does make a difference but you can try with just the bulb first if you are unsure. If you try with the bulb then upgrade to a purpose-built lamp like I did just throw that bulb into your bathroom and you will have fake sunlight in the two main spots where people typically spend the early AM.

The principle behind it is the light signals your body to stop producing melatonin which is what makes you sleepy. That way you have less in your system so are less groggy in the AM. Once you get going with the setup regularly I think your circadian rhythm adjusts so you wake up to the light all by itself.

Edit 2:

My setup-

And here is a timer just like mine (couldn't find my exact kind online but it doesn't matter):

  1. How high is your pH? You might be able to buffer it a bit if it's not out of this world high. Either way, I recommend any mineral water. Reverse osmosis or distilled water is not going to have any mineral nutrients in it, so it won't be quite as good for a planted tank. Mineral water should be fine

  2. I recommend these guys they're easy to use and relatively cheap. There's no fuss with trying to set multiple timer schedules or anything like that. I use two of those - each controls a whole power strip. That way I can control multiple devices with a single timer. Just make sure you get something with 3 prongs/grounding. Lots of aquarium equipment is grounded, so that's necessary for a timer.
