I understand that 8 1000w is entering smallish commercial. The real question here is does anyone know If this is to much consumption?

I am just trying to understand the area a little better and get some education. Down south 8 lights is standard. Is there a standard here?

If someone was using 4 1000's would that raise any suspicions?

The space I have is maybe 12ft X 25ft and I want to utilize to it's full potential but really don't feel like getting raided whether I have a MJ card or not.

If I am going to do something I like to be as informed as possible. I know they only can get your power records if they already know something is up, but how much usage would make the power company suspect something?

From what I know of business is that power companies want people to use their products. As long as your not stealing power they really have no incentive to turn you in....or do they?????
