So what are you guys using for a timer do you have where the wire feeds in ties into a timer and then from the timer going to plugs to run the lights? Also are you guys having to pig tail in order to run multiple plugs or is there a 220 plug that has 2 ends one for wire coming in and one for...

Hi guys, I wanted to ask you a question. I accidentally dropped my digital timer while I was getting it and it doesn't work anymore, I found a brand new timer among my stuff, it is analog but good quality but as soon as I plug in the lights it seems to overheat the timer. I don't get burned by...

Legalization USD/lb I got egiee gity viewing the first posts of another thread, but the posts are from 2015. Norml (Norml.org) tells me 500usd/lb outdoor and 1,600usd/lb indoor is the market price in the legal market pretty much anywhere. But then again Norml has been fibbing about the legal...

Unfortunately the room I am placing it in has no easy access outlets, so I am looking at putting in a dedicated subpanel to run all of the tents electrical. I would welcome any advice on power set-up or what some...

Thank you in advance for your help and please excuse my lack of knowledge or if my terminology isn’t accurate. I am hoping someone can help me answer a question or two about running some Quantum boards using Meanwell drivers and I want to make sure I’m not overloading a 15 Amp circuit, as well...

OK guys, here the thing. I never really knew much about smart meters or power rates or any of that before recently when my power bill nearly tripled!! A couple months ago a power guy came knocking on my door saying he was there to install a smart meter. I at the time didn't know I could refuse...

Ok, after more planning from my last thread, I have almost decided on the basics :D. I will be trying to use a solar generator for electricity, as this is as extreme stealth growing as I have seen done. Can anyone recommend me essential items that is needed (lights,fan, etc.), so I can begin to...
