it is quite possible the meter reader came the first time to read your meter as u just took over the utility, and then the billing cycle came around so your first bill will be a short span and a low bill,,,my 2cents, every one uses more or less power imo, u just moved they have nothing to judge u by if u ask me,,not yet anyways..i would just run it if it were me.

Thanks alot dude, all you have given me greeat points to go by. To help reassure me. Trust me for about the past 12 hrs this is all i have been thinking about. Running different reasons threw my head. I mean im not stupid, i can tell when sumthin is fishy. Now if it is or isnt i may never kno, but i do kno when the amount of power i was using, and he was stoppin by again in only a week he kinda scared me never the less. But anyways, its a really simple conclusion and that is just get a 600 or 400. and thats what im trying to decide on now. Heat was always an issue with the 1000 so thats another reason its being replaced anyways. So please keep that in mind when suggesting between a 600 and 400. I need the least amount of heat being produced from the fixture.

I am very new, so idk what people have gotten from the different sizes. So input is great, i need help deciding and take all the advice given by everyone in here very seriously. IF you told me to jump off a bridge to make my plants bigger and juicyer i prolly would. Lol

That won't work. You have to jump off of a building to make your plants bigger and juicier.

i am to assume that you'll be replacing your 1k with another light in the same area. What kinda space are you working with. A 600 is the most efficient light you can buy

My space is about 3-3.5 ft wide and 30in long. So i guess its safe to say a 3x3 space give or take the few inchs here n there.

I already have 6in fans and ventilation in place. And plan on tryin out a cooltube

this is why i planned a full power solar plan in my morgage comming up, the power co can pay me back, i can waste/use all the free power i want,,and no one will know what im using, the rebates and power co credits and what not, it will cost 1/2 the price , instead of paying the power co u are paying off the solar job u just had put in,,5 to 7 yrs later u own it and pay nobody, cept for battery replacement every 5 yrs if i remeber right....go green power, it helps u, and every one else.,

burndt

well:

at 3x3...that's 9sq ft. At a recommended 50 watts per square foot, it calls for 450 watts

at 3x3.5...that's 10.5 sq ft. At a recommended 50 wpsf, it calls for 525 watts

I would go for the 600. make sure you can properly cool your space

good luck

Well yea thats the best idea yet and that is to set up a solar panel. But im in a townhouse and i rent so i cant put a solar panel on my roof or in my yard that isnt even mine cuz its considered a "common area" for the neighborhood lol. But yea im with you on that, once i buy my house, im gettin solar panels for that room and spacificly that room

Ok that sounds good. Never was good with math thats for sure. Imma go with the 600, that way im just overing the minimal wattage by a little bit. Now what can i easily work under there. 4 fems? 6? Wat can that handle?
