I have a closet grow room and there was no outlet in the room. My first experiment I used a nearby outlet outside the room and ran an extention cord under the door. That wasn't very stealthy and made me nervous so I then realized that I could take the light apart on the ceiling and wire in an outlet on the ceiling. I have and it works just fine as long as the light switch is in the on position. I actually really like it because it keeps my surge protector cord off the ground. My question is...will this outlet have the same 15amps to use as a typical outlet? Right now im in the veg state on my mother plant and not using much electricity. I will be soon running (4) 4' flourescents ontop of my nursery cabinet and a 400 watt HPS. I have run them for a couple hours to see what the temperature was going to and to make sure the wire wasnt getting hot.
