this is true but also i live in a small home, and i don't know if anyone knows this but homes are rated with a max kw consumption rating, and as sumone with a bigger home has more room to work in that range. but someone with a smaller home can't get away with that kindda jump. i live in a small double wide on 2 acers so i was gonna build a bigger shed like building, and put it in there as im in a 3x4 area now and i need more room.im using around 1500w for my room but i wanted to jump it to around 5 or 6000w and to jump up that much all the sudden is risky to me as i heard on the news last nite here i guy got busted with 540 plants in his home and they did'nt say how they got him i know they said something about smell but i just want to be real careful and was trying to find a quiet way that i could do other than using my electric if poss even if i could split it up and find a gen that i could use 6hrs and then switch to my electric for the other 6 as i'd only need it during flower
