cheap way to power 8000 watts of light

[turtle420]

a full tank of fuel lasted 8-10 hours ... and your rich uncle owns a fuel refinery, I hope ???

Either that... or shitloads of tasty cars stranded by the side of the road....

the equalizer pf2 custom order from canada $750 - 800 they reduce a percentage of your bill.But with more load they knock off a bigger percentage. Its odd the more you put on it the better it works to a point. although I havnt used it i have seen on in use and will be trying one on my next run.

I remember hearing someone talking about how they got a permit to run a big LAN setup or something along those lines as an excuse to why they were running so many watts. Anyone know what this is all about, or heard anything like it?/

As for the bulbs, just use 1000w vertical bulbs

hulkster.... did the room get set up?

Umm, running a generator is not a good method for this. Just do 2 rooms of 4k per and have them alternate on times the power usage is constant and pay the bill on time. Nobody will notice anything at all because they will be happy you are paying them all that money. Don't steal electricity, they will notice that kind of a power draw that isn't being paid for.

tell the electric company you need high-amperage 220-volt independent line run into house, as you are using a high-powered electric MIG welder ... they will love you ... $$$ ... a friend did that, and they even cut him a deal on the hookup fees, as they saw big bucks ahead ... :smokin:

no one will notice 8,000 watts... ummm

That depends on your neighborhood and what kind of police enforcement you have...

I don't mean to scare... but there are police department(s) that check electrcil bill averages in neighborhoods and then walk police dogs past homes that have high bills.. this happened in calabasses, california a couple years back...

They busted a house that had 4 computers on and NO MJ.. LOL

any decent lawyer will tell you that without a warrant that evidence is completely inadmissable. Same thing that happens when a drone sees grow lights and the cops bust it. Charges get dropped every time because without a warrant, the courts won't let it through. Spying is still frowned upon by the courts when it comes down to it and those cases almost always get thrown out.

But, not the point. The power company does not communicate with law enforcement unless law enforcement is asking. So pay your bill and they will not notice 8000W of power from a home if it is being used 4000W at a time. An average home can have all kinds of fun things running inside, the power company just wants your money and no hassles. Don't try to steal electricity and keep your wattage sane. They won't notice a thing, at least they won't care even if they did.

Get a welder if you like and that is explanation enough if you are still paranoid about it. If you are worried enough to think you need a generator do it. Whatever it takes to make it fun instead of scary. If it is too nerve racking then it isn't worth it.

Welders don't use that much power, but great point; they don't care unless you stiff em' so pay your bill and if you get a call, say you run a home business and have tons of office equip running, or welders ( ) or hell webservers. Point is, the only way to get busted is if you tell someone what you're doing, so keep tight lips, don't sell!, and make sure you have at least 2 locks between you and the plants.
