Black heat lamp 24/7?

[CALM Pythons]

Right now I have my 2 month old bp in a 20gal long tank, I know day and night cycles are important for them, and so I have a day and night lamp that I switch out. But I'm in the Army and I go to the field a lot, so I have my wife do it when I can't. I was thinking, to make it easier on my wife, can I keep the black night heat bulb on 24/7 as long as I open the shades to keep the natural light cycle going and so she doesn't have to swap lamps?

If you really want it simple get the CHE heat bulb. Thats No light and all you need is the light from the windows. You dont even have to open blinds, they let enough through for a snake.. They stay in a Hole all day and come out at night.
