vegging room,

2, 36watt fsl lights
2kw upright fan heater with cool blow
small fan


flowering room

1, 600watt hps light
1.8kw ceramic oscillating upright fan heater
fan
intake fan
100mm exhaust fan +carbon filter


i wanted you expert advice if all this going to be to much power consumption and would raise a few eyebrows?
also i cant realy afford my bill getting to high.

is 2kw same as 2000 watts? would it use the same power as a 2000watt light or 2 1000's

You got it..Those little heaters suck big time electric. Most are 1500 watts for the little ones

i run 2x400w hps and 2 rvk100 extracors 3 water pumps 1 oscilating fan and a 600w heater and im using about 4 pounds a day and im in flowering. if i was in veg i could almost add another 2 pounds to that figure.

you can buy a 600w oil filled radiator like mine for around 12 uk pounds in any diy store and they wont use as much heat as a 1500w heater.. they also stay hotter longer as the oil takes a while to cool dwn..

best of luck to you m8.. hope it all works out.
