First time using RW, I'm on around 2/3 week of 12/12 but going well so far.

good to have you along stickey, rain water can be fine depending on where you live, some coastal dwellers have had salt issues from useing it, but if your week 2/3 and no hasstle then go for it...


sounds like your well used too growing, you been at it long? what lights ,strains etc you doing???

Can't remember, and I'm a sparks. LoL. I've never actually done a load check on my rig.

a sparkie .... we been needing one of them for ages hahahahaha tell me dude, when your stringing lights together on one switch @13a how many light fittings can you have on it, is the wattage of the bulb a factor, if i have say 65w bulbs how many can i fit saftley on one plug....


have a sparkie friend who calculated the 4 i have now are pulling 4a across the fuse but i don`t know how he got that, like the equation he used?

shame that, i think it was bad coco from the start, contaminated or something.....



burning alot of coal here aswell and oil, wifes a cold crater, think i`ll have to get a load of sticks to burn, best thing for an open fire if you ask me....

Watts = amps X volts
Or
amps X volts = watts
OR
watts / volts =amps

Once ye have 2 values you can calculate the 3rd


Ye done a few grows befor some good some bad.

i am only rageing i couldn`t get a back boiler in when we got it, the heat the little thing throws out is savage and if it had a boiler i`d be heating the house, a is it heats the sitting room and thats it, but it would be sauna like in there.....

i may get one now, kinda have to know the min temp for sure, it`ll get mild then cold again and i`ll be back to square one, fuck it i put it off long enough anyways ahahahahaha...



1500w is high alright trek but your better to have it than to need it in the end, after last year you don`t want to loose them again, i`d be a little heartbroken if these went tits up..
