cfls are much less efficient than hps for growing

cfl's tend to get 65 lumen/watt; a 600w hps can get 150 lumen/watt; that's a massive difference

agreed with replacing the lights with cfls, but i wish folks would stop passing false info about how "efficient" cfl's are for growing. they're not very efficient, they're just cool

I was just wondering how many Watts a typical household uses in an hour/day. How many Watts of power before you are obviously doing something out of the norm. If anyone knows of an ways to produce Electricity without leaving a sign, post some Ideas. I thought about a Hydrogen Generator, they exist, and can be converted from existing Internal Combustion Engine, but Hydrogen Rating: 5
