The Power Issue
Yo.
It's been a while since Ive been on here at Cannabis land. Nonetheless Im back with another question that I don't see brought up very often when building cabs.
I would imagine most stealth cabinet growers are putting their cabs in a closet, or maybe not but for this question we all are.
Now most Closets do not have a power outlet inside, so in order to power the cab one would have to bring power into the closet via an exstension cord. My question is, wether or not one exstention cord into a 4 outlet gang box would be enough power to run a 150w HPS, an outlet fan, an assortment of CFLs and Flouro tubes?
Hope everyone takes a crack at this, as multiple answers always provide the best outcome.
Respect.

i would think so if lets say you have to get a good amperage xtention cord. my cab im bout to build should be able to use a 15 amp breaker using about 11.5 amps. a good xtention cord will handle 15amps.
good luck
and its time to hit the bong
