Alright one more ? About the step up just to finish them off and get the pestering from my mind. I can't seem to word it properly for a Google response...
Say this: I have a 110 circuit@ 15A. I'm putting 1100w into that circuit as a steady load. AC kicks on, surges@ 1500w and intermittently blows fuses. I would need to buy a step up rated at twice the wattage of what I need? So, I use 2600 at peak, I'd need one rated @ 5200w? Once that's on the line, it's only cutting ( we'll say lights and ac) in half , bringing their load to 800-1000w. That still leaves me all the room up to 1500w again?
The surge current is typically from capacitance induction motors and not all AC devices need that extra umph to start. My mini split is not on the 100A panel. It is tied directly to the main panel and 200A line.
 
Hey folks. Life is good again. Breathed a sigh of relief after returning from the post office today. I received notice to sign for a delivery nd that scared my paranoid self half to death. Finally said what the heck you only live once and went. Now I have new seeds and a new T-shirt. Yee haaah! Its cold here but I'm ready to celibrate with some new seeds from ripper.
 
That's it...Its Friday and a crisis is on...I am shutting it down the rest of the afternoon...its Keef's birthday after all. New LED's...min-split and EC fan motors have cut 40 to 50 bucks off my electric bill...not to mention the lower amps on the lines. I tend to be over cautious with power and try not to exceed 75% circuit load...I used 10ga running outlets for generator hook-ups...(no extension cords through doors)..all so on my mini-split hook-up(cussed a few times putting it in conduit due to stiffness)...I ran it to outside box adding a new breaker for it. I put a male/female split in it so I can hook it to the generator with out a transfer switch. Green Crack is not a good choice for home detention ...it is on the up-lifting note....but...I have eat 2 days worth of rice cakes in one morning..glad they are only 35 calories a piece!
 
Guess I’m smokin the wrong weed...I’ve not found any of that busy weed...did I say happy birthday keef?
Happy Birthday Keef!!!


The dogs begin to bark
All over my neighborhood
I got a feelin' about the future
And it ain't too good, I know
 
I guess I'm running a 14/2 for the ac, it shouldn't melt? It's not warm enough outside to install the window unit.
Thanks for the info on your runs guys. Noted for future use. Hopefully sooner than later....
$7 a box for fuses and needless trips to home Depot don't add up these days. Didn't matter as much before if I blew a fuse on occasion during storms. I really don't want any issues in the grow for as long as possible though. I'm gonna end up building a house around my grow rooms someday lol.
 
420 ish ?--
Might as well do some burnt offerings ?
Dax afraid to give out too much info ?-- Cause somebody might find him ?---I was born in Conroe Texas April 10th 1955 -- It would be easy to find me !-- I was probably the prettiest baby born that day ?

The kind that gets U high - high !-- I like to think of it as a quest -- Don't think I've found the best yet !-- I got nothing left from some bought seed -- I grow OFC genetics and I do just fine !-- Right now I'm working on getting a harvest ahead so I can get some aging !-- I do like me some nice jar aged weed !-- For me though- Some always better than none !
 
Gonna pop some sunset sherbet for an outdoor. I wasn’t gonna do any more autos but I have some seed so why not...just some stuff I had left from last year...gonna need something to take up to my sons place on the hill anyway...
 
I know Y'all think Other Keef just a figment of my imagination but he real !- He got his own set of papers to prove it !-- Wonder where he went ?-- Last time I saw him he was second lining off with them shuffle dancing witches ! -- Pretty sure that was a figment of my imagination?
