Wiring mogul sockets?

I was wondering if i could wire 8 mogul sockets to one plug for a total of 368watts. It is NOT equivalency rating. Would that be too much or what? I'm trying to limit the amount of plugs i need to a small amount. Also to buy a prewired mogul its anywhere from $12-$25. So I'm wondering if i could wire 8 mogul sockets to one plug and how much should i be paying for the materials needed?

do you need mogul sockets? mogul are the big ones not std household Edison Screw ones.
id think any cfl under 100w would likely be a normal ES type not mogul.
but yea you can run the 8 sockets in parallel from one mains plug no worries.
run same color wire to the same terminal on each light and other color to the other terminal on each light.
same way outdoor party lights are wired up.

Too be completely honest with you I was under the impression mogul was a regular size light socket. Lol, I'm also very clueless too. Sounds easy enough to wire up. I was wondering, I know there is Y adapters so I can put 2 bulbs in 1 socket. I've found them for about $4.50 a piece, I was wondering where I could find a 3 bulb adapter and for about how much?

dont know if they make any 3 bulb ones. never seen em anywhere
what kind of setup are you thinking of making?

One bulb. One ballast. Your strongest bulb will pull all the power of the ballast until the bulb blows, and then the next, ect. ect...

(I should read the entire thread before i post) Sorry dude. I was thinking HID when i saw mogul base.

Well it'll look something like this.

XXXX

Each X resembles where a Y adapter will go. I will have 16 cfls at 23w each.

I will try to find a post on this site where this is a 3 socket adapter. I'm pretty sure it's this forum site anyways!

With this setup of

X X X X
X X X X

at 2 bulbs per X that's 3200 lumens per X for a total of 25600 lumens.

I will be purchasing a pack of 25 bulbs for about $35 off ebay (if you know of cheaper PLEASE let me know 0_x)

With 3 socket adapters I could fit 24 cfls for a total of 38400.

Or I could just add 4 more Y adapters.
With 4 more Y adapters itd be like this

X X X X X X
X X X X X X

Anyway back to the link of the 3 socket adapter. Scroll down to the 6th picture.

i think youre going a bit overboard.
for that much effort youd be better off with a cheap HPS, itll pay for itself first grow. just one light to hang and more light for less watts.
or use fluoro tubes, theyd be a lot simpler to setup.
that 3 way one might be 2 Y joined together?

I would take to the post above me honestly way better money spent imo but if this is required for stealth or the like I understand.. In which case go tho home depot and they have fan attachment fixtures or somethin like that anyway they wire into the bottom of a fan and have 3sockets that would work pretty good. I personally would just build a light box

dude just use flourescent tube lights.. will make your life much easier. they are like 10-15 dollars for a 4 or 5foot long light that can take 2 tubes at around 40+ watts each. just get 2 or 3 of those and then use CFL's around the sides of your plants. then instead of hanging all these cfl's on 3 foot adapters you just have your main top lighting and then the cfl's which you could then move around and place where you need light as your plants grow. whereas if you do this setup you're talkin about you will be stuck with all your lighting on top of the plants and in a set location

was lookin on ebay and found these, rekon they would be an easy way to setup multiple lights.

I am currently using something like those adapters in the first picture from the last poster. Basically, to get three, there is an extension that screws into your light socket. The adapter has a plug on both sides. You take the previous posters adapters, and plug them into each side, allowing you three sockets from the original singe socket. It makes your light bulbs into a T formation. I hope this makes sense. >.<
