I live in a two bedroom apt. and im looking to add a second tent, should i stick with another 600 watt or run a 1000 watt. id like to stay under the radar even though im a legit medical patient. would running a 600 and a 1000 out of the same socket be a fire hazard, or would it trip the breaker?

Thanks.

not knowing what the circuit is rated at i couldn't tell you , if you do try both off the same circuit make sure they don't both come on at the sane time have them start about 5-10 min staggered

I would definetly go with a 1000. I wouldnt sugesst you run those together 600 watt pulls like little over 5 amps 1000 watt pulls little over 9 amps most apartment circuits are wired to run 15 amps. so unless those lights are the only things on that whole circuit I would suggest against it. I dont like finding my lights off because of a breaker poped.

I would say just turn those bbys on a give it a try. If it blowes, what would you lose? The energy it takes you to walk to the circuit. Try it out and let us know.
