Your gonna need a lot of work. If you know nothing about electricity then an electrician is a must. Your gonna need a 50amp 240v power supply run to the room. A lot of the double oven hook ups etc have 50amps. Hot tub hook ups also usually need 50amps and use a special cord. A 50amp timer box can be used to run your lights and your fans etc. I think you will also need a 20amp 120v with a GFI receptacle made for 20amps to run some constant stuff and veg lights. This can be done so many ways depending on how your house is etc...If this doesn't make sense then an electrician is a must. Overloading circuits is very dangerous. Good luck.

Good Luck

Pacific, I gotta agree with Malachi. There is no way your going to be able to run all that off one breaker. You will have to install a sub panel with a few breakers in it. If you have no experience with electrical work you should definately get someone who is qualified to do this. Good luck.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Lost again.

aka

yea what Lost said

even though its relatively 'easy' to rig you up a box, its better to just buy premade if you dont know anything.

sometimes ya gotta pay the premium

If your location is a permanent one, an electrician and a bag of money...

If your location is not permanent, the Powerbox is a good choice that you can take with you. You should still have an electrician look things over...oh, and a bag of money
