Don have you ever tried cat piss in your epi in flower? Its the best. everyone should do it.

Just read the original post of this thread, so ive never heard a calculation where 2x 5-ton = 10 tons is enough for 30,000 watts especially bare bulb.

I have heard aircooled to be 3500 or 4000 btu per 1000 watt bulb, and bareback 1000's to be 6000 btu cooling load or 1/2ton each.

Therefore, 10 tons should do 20 bulbs bareback by the skin of its teeth (ie. pinned out 12 hours straight).

Am I missing something?

Ask Cannabis John in the air conditioning section of the site. I have never seen Jack complain about him not having enough cooling power to keep all his rooms chilled.

1 Watt = 3.4 BTU heat (other added variables such as hotter summer months, let's use 4BTU per watt)

Bare bulbs hung vertically are actually pretty efficient, add a fan blowing up under it and it becomes even better. Heat rises, so with no hood to trap that heat and create even more heat, the air is constantly circulating.

Hot summer months (100+ degree's), it's actually the a/c that is taking the hit, the lights are Not going to produce more heat in a sealed room. The air temp within the room is a constant, I'm sure with CO2 your room is going to be somewhere in the low 80s during lights on.

4 (BTU) x 30,000 (Watts) = 120,000 btu worth of heat

10 (Tons) x 12,000 (btu per Ton) = 120,000 btu worth of cooling

They'll be working hard but getting the job done. Add fans in with constant circulation and only trying to keep the room in the low to mid 80s, shouldn't be an issue.

AllLegal is pretty much spot on in his remarks imo.

Another point to consider is that an AC's tonnage or btu rating is only nominal under "typical conditions." So if the condenser unit it is installed in a shaded area and or run at night (when most run their lights) or any time it is cool/cold outside the AC will actually have a stronger cooling capacity than it is nominally rated for. Obviously, the converse is true if it is 110 degrees out and your outside unit is sitting in the sun.

A little AC humor. This recently happened to me...I cant imagine anyone has this problem in SoCal.
