If you attempt it, make damn sure you turn off the power to where you'll be drawing it from. Usually you'll have a circuit breaker somewhere in the building (house would for sure, and I've never been to an apartment w/o one so I'm assuming that's standard). When you turn it off at the circuit breaker, make sure you leave a note saying "DO NOT TURN ON POWER" as a safety precaution. Really, safety is the most important thing to consider here.
What I've always done is find a part of the wall where on the opposite side, whatever other room that is, there's an outlet there. Turn off the power and leave the note. I take a jigsaw and cut a rectangle in the wall where I know it's at least a couple inches away from the outlet (cut on the closet side of the wall, not the outlet side). Then I just take some wires and connect it from that outlet to the new one. Screw it in, and screw in the faceplate after that. If you don't really need the other outlet, you can just unscrew (unplug if it's the kind you stick the wires into the slots) the wires and screw them into the new outlet.
If you have a voltometer or one of those outlet checkers, you can check to see if you've done the job correctly after. See the pics.AR15 Reviewed by AR15 on . grow tents hey all, im trying to be more stealthy instead of just plopping everything as is into a sliding closet. anyways, im looking in to getting some kind of grow tent. i was wondering what are the best ones. i know hydrohuts had some kind of recall or something, but are they ok now? i want something sturdy and quality built. oh and if anyone has any opinions on good inline fans id be happy to hear them. i think im just going to spring for a vortex 6" though because of the 10 year warranty.
