Getting up at night

I thought Dio has been getting ready for hibernation, he's extremely slow, eats minimally or not at all, and is only up a few hours a day; BUT, he has been getting up in the middle of the night and laying on his basking spot, as if to give me a hint that he wants his lights on. Should I turn a heat lamp on at night in his tank? my room doesn't drop below 60 degrees, which I know isn't too cold... sometimes I mist in the evenings which may cool it down a bit too much?
...BTW, he did this last year too, but he only brumated, not full on hibernation.

suggestions/Does anyone know why he does this ?
