LEDs costly but seem good (he says never having used them lol).
Double-ended lights seem to have taken off...i.e 630DE cmh. CMH also comes in 315w. Also HIDs but they run on a slightly different attachment than the hps. All the smart kids run LEDs, I have cmh's.....

I'm going to stop using my HPS for good at the end of this grow.

LED all the way now. Mainly because they run cooler per lumen, and my grows are always in small spaces. I'm building my own modules, 10K lumen and 100W actual output per module. Mixture of 3500K and 5000k white leds. Costs about £85 quid for parts for each module.

UK, southwest devon here! I am interested in knowing if anyone has been growing one or two plants in a small set up and been doing it years and never been caught????. I'd like to hear about your success, including highly recommended brands for carbon filters, scrubbers, noise reduction, and any other measures asides from keeping your business to yourself. I'm about to embark on this new journey and I do have concerns given its not tolerated. I want to do all that I can to be un-obvious
Rhino pro filter.

Oversize it so it last longer.
Oversized acoustic duct if you can fit it in your duct sock keeps woosh sound down.
Look on ebay for silent box fans. They are almost silent, but do not shift as much air as a standard ruck but in comparison a ruck fan is 50db a silent box fan is 23db +. You can buy one bigger than needed and add a manual variac to turn it up or down.

The fans im talking about.

Did you get in on that Samsung f series deal a bit ago? Arrow were selling 2ft f strips for like a quid fifty or something, normally like 16 nicker each.
free world wide delivery and no taxes.. Madness.

Highlight Led boards are worth a mention, high cri and efficiency, seems to shave a week off flowering time.
