thanks a lot peeps. all your advice has been very helpful regarding this extremely important topic. as far as i understand it i could have blown the entire house up, thus placing myself and everyone who lives here at risk. my intention now is to "borrow" power from the garage using an extension cord that runs through the garage and through the bricks outside my bedroom, and into the closet. this cord will be dedicated to supplying power to ONLY the 1000W HPS and 300 CFM inline fan. i plan on starting a grow log once i order in the missing parts for my digi cam. later.
macnasty Reviewed by macnasty on . A question about energy consumption: how much is safe before everything blows? Hi all, I'm a bit nervous about my first setup. I'd like to know if it's safe to run all my equipment from a single bedroom without having to worry about a power failure. Below is what I have in my closet, and below that is what I may have running in my bedroom at the same time. I appreciate all your help. Closet --> - 5 x 250GPH water pumps - 2 x air pumps - 2 x timers - 1 x 6" vortex in-line fan (sorry I don't know how many cubic feet this thing pumps) Rating: 5
