I will put this nice and bluntly for you to save massive abuse from everyone else on here........

"you are a fucking idiot if you bypass your meter and that is one of the easiest ways to get caught"

Honestly though sooo not a good idea

I couldn't think of anything nice to say so I waited for someone else to say it. They're absolutely right, it's dangerous and increases your odds of prison time. It's also selfish and endangers those around you.
Just stating facts.

Your a fucktard. Either grow and pay the bill... Or don't grow at all.... I mean you said you got a couple 600s going? That's more then enough for a light bill. Mine is a constant 300 a month and I use 1 600 but I live in a 4 bedroom home

These people that bypass meters usually have a thing for buying more and more lights too. The not so odd thing is these people that bypass meters are becoming less and less in numbers........I wonder why :/

Pretty stupid if you ask me... One of my space heaters is 3 600w lights together. No excuse not to pay.

The only way you can bypass that legally, is if you have a medical waiver that they can't turn your power off. I have done this and put the meter back in it's correct place. No legal action was taken against me because I proved that they could not legally turn my power off. My sister was on dialysis which takes a HUGE amount of power to do every night.

Bypassing power is for people who already know how to do it!

If you're running 20+ houses with 50k burning in each then yeah you're already got your master electrician getting paid 10x what they're worth as it is highly illegal!
Even the big dogs in BC that were bypassing power ended up seeing too many fellow BIG DOGS go down so they switched to diesel generators that could power a fucking football stadium.

You're running a few 600's? Doesn't your allowance cover your bills? Joking of course but bypassing power for anything under 16k is a fucking joke.

Good Luck!

If u cant afford a couple of 600 watt grow lights then use some t5's. Theres no excuses for theft. Dont agree with the government but dont support theft

You WILL get yourself busted, don't do it. Reduce your costs to an affordable level and build your business with patience. The T5's are a good starting point.

LOL! WOW! Im new and Id have to say I love the responses to this thread! I guess qualifications for posting a thread are as listed: ..breathing. (That was a stupid question!) Making growers look bad. Use common sense, make wise investments, maintain moral compass..

Here's what you do.

Step1.
Locate the main power lines under your meter.

Step2.
Remove the front panel to your meter.

Step3.
Locate terminations inside your meter.

Step4.
Get a table knife or fork and stick it on the terminations.

Step5.
Hope you don't die from the electric shock.


Dumbass idea.

Downsize your grow until you can afford it.
