I recently moved in with my gf and was thinking I could convert the apartment I've been renting for 3 years into a grow op.
Here's the setup :
2x Dark Room 240 II (8x8x6,6)
2x Vortex 6", 1.2 amp, 449 CFM
2x Mercury 2 speed controller,
4x Lumatek 1000w ballast 120v, 8.92 amp
4x Apollo 4 120v timer,
The place has 5x 120v outlets in the kitchen each on a separate 15amp breaker.
If we take into consideration the 80% rule, I have about 60amp to work with here.
What I was thinking of doing is this :
Connect the four Lumatek ballasts to four Appolo 4 timers.
Plug each timer/ballast into a different outlet like so :
Outlet A : 8.92 amp
Outlet B : 8.92 amp
Outlet C : 8.92 amp
Outlet D : 8.92 amp
Outlet E : 0 amp
Then, I'd connect the two Vortex to a Mercury 2 controller each.
Plug one into E and the other somewhere else :
Outlet A : 8.92 amp
Outlet B : 8.92 amp
Outlet C : 8.92 amp
Outlet D : 10.1 amp
Outlet E : 1.2 amp
Finally, I'd plug a power strip into E and put my humidifier and oscillating fans on there resulting in this :
Outlet A : 8.92 amp
Outlet B : 8.92 amp
Outlet C : 8.92 amp
Outlet D : 10.1 amp
Outlet E : 6.8 amp
Do you guys see a fire hazard somewhere or am I good to go ?
Thanks
