Im not a electrician, obviously.
FYI: I am in New Zealand, power here is 230/240v @ 50hz
1) Can i run a 600w HPS and its ballast aswell as a standard desk fan over a 10ft extension cable plugged into a double adapter thats plugged into a wall socket without worrying?
Note: The double adapter in the wall socket is there coz the missus does the ironing in the room and its the only socket, so at times there will be a iron running aswell. Im afraid to test it coz my grow is underway and i dont want to blow the bulb. I have a Residual Current Device in the grow box, not sure if this helps.
2) Can i trust my HPS bulb to last for 10+ weeks at 20/4, or is it likely that it will blow out?
