A little tip for everyone living in apartments. A lot of the time adjacent apartments have back to back outlets. Nuff said.........

ON these old style meters i have been told youi can slow down the rotation of the meter by sticking a big magnet on the side of the box . Again bad idea and i hav not tried it myself . I would not do this is your meter is in plain sight where people can see it .

Growers already get a bad rap as it is , were not a bunch of criminals . Well for the most part anyway , unless someone is commiting criminal acts like stealing power . They will probably get caught and it will be in the paper and the gen public can say that were all a bunch of crooks . What the fuck is wrong with people , pay your bill c'mon man . $10,000.00 fine for stealing power where I am plus 5 years in jail possibly. Hmm lets see I pay around $3500.00 a year for power . Cut the shit .

Tesla? What'd he have to do with modern electricity? He came up with a theory that he could never get to work...another "genius".

You're a spa dude, stop being Emo about paying a bill. Electricity will NEVER be free, put the bong down, start living in the real world and stop crying about it.
Please watch a documentary about Tesla or read some books. He is the person who invented our current electric system, alternating current, even in the face of the greedy Edison pushing his Direct Current. Telsa was trying to create free power but his funding was pulled once the person supplying the money realized he wouldn't be able to make money off it... I mean if you can't make money off everyone why do it right? Besides that Tesla had many, many patents, and designed the 1st electric motor....the same design our dams use to create electricity today. He designed the first remote control, controlling an RC boat... the list goes on and on. Tesla WAS a "genius", fact. Not only was he a genius but he devoted himself to helping people rather than exploiting them to make money.

The rest of this thread is so stupid it isn't even worth commenting on.

So the people that actually made his theories work in a practical sense are forgotten? You live in your dream world with free electricity, I suppose in your world coal,oil,gas,uranium and (to a lesser extent) hydrogen are all free too? No? So who pays for them to run the power stations cos electricity is free?

Stop talking shit, pay your bill and quit moaning about it.

Jesus, some people need to moderate their drug use, it's clearly distorting reality for them.

if you have an annalog meter on your house.simply drill a hole with the smallest bit you have at the 5 oclock position on the side glass of the meter(very carefully),and shove a sowing needle throuth the hole in the glass ,up into the gears of the meter.this stops the meter from crancking ,then about 10 days befor the meter reader comes to read.simply remove the needle and the meter will run again.the key is figureing out when to pull the needle so as to keep your bill around where it always was befor you started growing. shuckins what can i say ,i'm a fucking genius. it really works perfectly!!!!!!!!!!! good growing my fellow rebels of the herb.

THis is the dumbest post ever on RIU.....Dont do this, you're going to get in serious trouble from a couple of different angles.

Stealing power is the #1 way to get busted...followed by dogs getting lose and girlfriends.

fine ,if you're too stupid or too stoned to make a small hole at the 5 o'clock position on a universal(if analog)meter,then just have an $800 electric bill.that will sure fool the authorities!!!!!enjoy the police investigation of your large e-bill.forgive me for trying to help you fucking hippy wanna be idiots!!!

I'm going to agree with most guys on this thread that this is a bad idea. From what I have seen the majority of indoor grows that get busted are for stealing electricity. The meter readers know what they are looking for and will eventually catch on to what you are doing. Then they will call the cops and they will have a standing warrant to raid your home. Just not worth the added risk. I'd say look into alternative lighting if you are that concerned about your bill.

isn't this idea from the OP just plain stealing electricity?

is his next thread going to argue that it's okay to tell our friends and family that we grow?

stoners and growing already have a bad reputation in the general public, seeing as how most of us are lazy, food-crazed, non-active people... lets not add electricity thief to the list. grow an extra plant or 2, sell it, and pay the electric bill.

you do NOT want to give the authorities ANY reason to suspect foul play

He is telling people to do this to not get caught. Doing this WILL get you caught. Maybe not right away, but you will.
Power companies dont give a fuck about what you pay, they make money on it. They do however care if you steal the shit.

Its plain bad advice, and people were letting that fact be known.

If you are at 800/month then you are growing to sell, and make plenty of fucking money.
Hell my bill doesnt even break 300 yet, and I sell it medically.

Dont be a bitch and just pay the bill.

Not to mention if you get caught stealing power they will question why you were stealing it to begin with and they you'll be in trouble...where as if you just pay your bill they don't really take notice of if it goes up a little..maybe you got a roommate..or bought a huge TV...lol. Pay the bill and no flags are raised..you go around sticking needles into power meters and you will be made in no time..

do not steal? would you want someone to steal your plants? this is the way i look at it. everyone has a crop theirs happens to be elec. so pay your bills and be done with it.( to be honest smart people can find ways around the limiting point without being obliviously illegal)

a couple good ways to do that i have done personally

rent to town home next to each other and use the elec from both meter.

rent a house next to a business a friend owns and run elec from there discretely in addition to your own elec.
