Questions regarding heating globes and thermostats;

I am heating my pythons during the day with a reflector globe on a dimming thermo, providing a basking spot but want the enclosures to be heated with a ceramic for night time as the ambient temps in my house drop dramatically during the winter here in Victoria. The main question I’ve had trouble answering myself is running these two globes of 1 thermostat - how would I go about having the basking globe on for the day time only but then having it automatically switch to the ceramic at night only.
2 separate digital timers on a double adapter plugged into the 1 day night dimming thermostat heating socket was all I could think of, but I did test this however I believe having the timers plugged into the socket that controls heat messed with the way it dims and the thermostat no longer works correctly.
