I just used a regular timer for years, set it to come on 3 hours before I needed the tractor. Maybe not as good but worked for me for years.

Been doing that as long as I can remember, just like you'd use for Christmas lights or something. Works perfectly.

I do kind of what shameless does but I buried wire from the house to the shed and just flip the switch a couple of hrs before I start it. I even have the light switch that light up so I can tell with it's on or off most of the time I forget to flip it off when I come it.
