timer broke, go a few questions on how to handle it

hi my plants are about 4 weeks into 12/12 except this morning they had an extra6 or 7 hours of sunshine thanks to my timer, its the 3rd time a timers broke, the timer seems to be working for other appliances tho, mayby its beacause im running the light and fans all off it, il put it on just the light tonight and hopefully itl work, im using an envirolight 200 watt btw.

what time should i put it on tonight? should i give it 12 hours of light still or a bit extra, or start day the same time as normal despite it having barely any night?

thanks

yea when my timers mess up i just put itback on to the time its suposed to be

just put them on normal schedule and they should be fine
i reccomend getting a reliable timer its worth it

Buy only Intermatic brand heavy duty appliance timers, or they will fail or break.
