meh, i would do it. it might be alot of power but its going to be a lot of power in a house, know why?? Because its power on top of what you already use. Its not like if you live in a house you power bill still wont go higher, houses use more yes but it doesnt mean that you not still going to use even more when your in a house. no matter where you are 1200 watts is noticeable. 1200 watts is 1200 watts. in an apartment there are less room of which you can have electrical shit, therefore less stuff that can be using power right?? i dunno i think its the same shit no matter where you are.
