Current marine orbit led pro dual light setup

I've currently got a 10g nano tank set up for about 4 months now. Everything is looking good and added some corals about a month ago and they look great. I'm thinking about adding another light. I've currently have the current marine orbit led and want to add another to cover more area. My question is how should I do this? Is there any way I can add another light and put both of them on one ramp timer? Or do I have to have each one on a seperate ramp timer.

I'm 90% sure you can daisy chain them. Actually I know you can but I'm not sure if it will work right since they're two different lights, one pro and one regular. I would probably email Current and ask... Although that much light on a 10g seems a ton you could probably just use a single Orbit Pro and sell the one you have now.

Thanks for the help I will order these. My next question is will it be OK to have two lights set up to one power supply? The two light channels from each light connect to a single ramp timer, and that ramp timer has one power cord plugged into the wall. Will the lights draw too much current?
