ELECTRICITY!!!

[Mr.RollOne]

How are some of these growers getting electric to run some of these larger grow rooms 4000w and up. Just seems like there electric bill would be crazy or there getting power another way??? Can anyone fill me in on how they get there power either way thx

 

[jondamon]

Yes I can fill you in.

They pay their bills.

If you're in the USA then power is pretty cheap.

If you're in the UK then power is expensive as hell.

With massive grows there is no cheats wAy to get electricity without stealing it.

Steal electricity and suffer the consequences when they find out.

When you say cheap 4 1000w would run you how much in your? Approximately

I live I California, I suspect we are among the most expensive states for electricity.

To run one 1,000w lamp for one hour it would cost 0.35¢ for myself.

Others are in areas where the electricity is quite low, 0.08¢ per KWH.

To figure your costs take the cost of one KWH from your utility company and then multiply it by the amount of hours and wattage you will use.

Ok so I'm trying to figure out how much electric I can use before it gets suspicious to the electric company. Where I live its .13cents kWh. So based by your electric cost which is. 35kWh how much a month could you use before looking suspicious out drawing attention, a guesstimate would be satisfactory.

Pay your bills on time and nothing is suspicious.


Who's to say you're not running welding machines?

In the UK it costs around 14p a kwh which is around 0.20$.

Precisely! Never steal electricity and always pay your bills. Many homes have much higher electricity usage then you suspect, people love their HVAC systems!

Unless you are operating a large scale site I suspect that your utility company just wants to get paid.

Thx mind me asking your electric bill ? I Don't mean to be rude.

 

[Wait, what?]

My friend has three battery powered wheelchairs and is constantly charging one or the other. My electric was $45 and his was $250. Consumption won't get you busted, not paying for it will

thats not including if you get out of tier one billing and into tier 2 or 3 cause your using more they charge you more

 

[jondamon]

I pay approx £110 a month for electricity and I run a 400w setup with dehumidifier and daily household electricity. Totalling around 24kwh per day.

Just for financial purposes I place all garden usage into the presumed expensive tier; 0.35¢KWH.

 

[SFguy]

That is a direct copy of my current bill. Links go straight to pge they were blue before I copy and pasted from my email. Looks like I'm gonna be about 1400 in before I see a nug

 

[~Dankster~420]

I deal with a high bill also. Well, not as high as yours or no where close. lol But mine runs right around 200 - 250 max during the coldest winter months. sorry yours is so high though. That sucks!

This winter electricity in parts of New England rose to $0.17/kWh (.12 supply + .05 delivery). One of my friends power bill was $650. In NYC it is closer to $0.25/kWh. High electric bills are no problem, very circumstantial evidence and yes the power companies just want to get paid.

Some people use electric heaters, tons of AC, tons of dehumidification, saltwater aquariums with HID lighting, swimming pool accessories, electric smokers, do tons of laundry, leave their TVs and computers running and have teenagers that take long hot showers. Their bills can easily be higher than growers bills.

 

[SFguy]

I'm not super efficient I leave lights and the radio on I'm sure I could bring it down 40-50
I'm only running 3200watts lol

 

[kmog33]

My music equipment pulls almost as much electricity as my lights do

In dk it is closer to $0.35/kWh. Fucking shocking bills from just 600 and a heater
