Is this going to be a problem when I install lights?
    #308012 - 11/01/09 09:42 PM (14 years, 4 months ago)

I plugged in my 1500 watt heater and all the lights in my apartment dimmed.

if i do a SOG grow without my heater should I be concerned?

Can't answer it without knowing how cold it gets in the apt.

we also should know how many watts of lights you're planning on using.
if you're using 1000W and the lights dim when you plug them in, then that means your 1000W is going to be dimmer as well

Run new wiring, then you don't have to worry about it.
