Go with a digital one, though I have to believe you can find a better price. The nice thing about digital ones is they almost always have a battery backup (replace the battery once / year) so if there is a power outage it remembers your programming.

Me I would go Zoomed I have two. Simple to use just turn the knob to the current time and push down the tabs (each tab is 15 minutes) to turn on and off.
The cons are the numbers and tabs are small have to bust out the glasses I use a letter opener to push down the tabs.

those would work but i have timers for multiple things like lights for different tanks and co2.
they are these ones. They also sell ones with the grounded prong but they're bigger. You could always just buy those non grounded to grounded plug adapters for like pennies and then ground it yourself to the ground or something. Very cheap like 2-3 bucks.
