There is always a lot of talk about this. I thought I would clear some things up and give out some important info I just found out about.

Power consumption IS used to catch growers!!!

-I just found this out: In Surrey BC and soon to be in Richmond and others, the electricity company By Law must give info on consumers using 3X or more the average power consumption to the Cops

-This may or may not be true were you live. But, you now have an idea of how much power you must use to put up alarms

This means that huge commercial grows need to worry.

As well most people are below the average, this is because the average is inflated by a few people (few thousand) who use ridiculously large amounts of power.

Its kinda like if you have a room of 100 people who all make 15000 a year. Very low. then Bill Gates walks in the room and the average jumps up million+ a year. When in fact all but one person are below the average. (gotta watch out for this shit, its how politicians and corporations lie)

If you are worried calculate your ops consumption. KWh = ([# of watts] x [hours used per month]) /1000.
Then look on your bill to see how much you use. You might be surprised how little your op uses.

All reduction measures are pretty much only for financial or sustainability reasons for Most growers on here.

I hope this eases some peoples nerves.

Things like smell are what you should be worryin about
