The PF2 Equalizer doesn't work. They're a joke, I know them very well, parts cost about $10, not including the cheap, piece of shit intermatic timer. I would not waste your money. If you'd to know more, ask me.....As for the 8 1000w ballasts, just use a 4 ballast flip (8 lights) and run the ballasts 24/7. The excess heat from the ballasts can be used to heat the room that's off during the winter months.

If your brother has the cash an easy solution to everything would be to get one of those Omega gardens. They are humongous 60-plant (in kind of SOG style) hydroponic gardens on an outer wheel, circulating around lights. They cost alot of money but, if used... well 60 plants -> pounds/month without too much power outlet/work.

just use a flip you can run double the lights with 1/2 the ballasts.. he can have 2 rooms. thats still 8k ...

honestly man if he has the cheddar go get a costum built generator that run off of old vegatable oil or someshit like that it might cost alot but after that all youhave to do is beg mcdonalds for their old grease lol

o and to mask the sound i would put it in the basement build a room around it with a ventalation system and reinforce the walls with a sound proof barrier

hey you should be able to run a quiet diesel generator you can always sound proof it run it to a bank of big marine battieries then to a disconect box this will limit fuel and noise battries will charge and run for quite a while.. also in the sticks where i grew up people used propane gen. and propane lighting.....hey BONGERSTONERDOOD to answer your question that is easy...who has the gun to your head.....the real druglord that sells in the same area...well the guys that work for him anyway...good point

8,000 watts of HPS isn't just a grow room, that's a fucking grow lab. What does he plan to do with all that weed? Personal or Profit?

The PF2 is a piece of garbage. It DOES NOT work. I am very familiar with these items....

I have the fix all for this problem...hopefully its not to late. If he's got the money, buy a generator called "The Guardian", this generator will power a 12,000 sq. ft. house three fold and is whisper quiet and to top it off can be powered by solar energy. Best of all no one knows about it, its in the garage, looks like an AC Unit and theres no bill.:smokin: This is what I do and I grow pretty big with no problemas:dance: :thumbsup: :smokin: :rasta:

Are you referring to this company, http://www.guardiangenerators.com/

If so, curious which model you have and about how much it cost you??
