If you are in the process of brumating your dragons, 10 hours of daylight is fine. The temps should be lower as well, 70-75F during the day, 65-70F at night. Depending on your normal day/night room temperatures, you can let it drop as cool as your room temperature at night. Also remember during this cooling period, you should not be offering any food, unless your dragons are refusing to brumate, in which case, have the basking temp in the 95-115F range till they do start to sleep. I would also feed then lightly during this time till they do brumate. After that, just have fresh water available for them to drink.
