You'll use less amps running 240v and save $$ on your light bill. Im still running my lights using 120v but i wanna switch to save the cash....

Awesome dankness COF.
Hey folks.
Im not sure about the 220 thing... I think it comes out even / not more or less expensive than 110. Needless, I like 220 better because I can run more on one breaker. My old room was all 220 except for fans and such.
edit: "Last I checked, the power company bills their customers in kilowatts per hour.
The straight answer, you are paying for power, you are not paying for amperage, you are not paying for voltage, you are paying for power. That appliance can run on one volt, or a thousand volts, it makes zero difference."
"220 draws 1/2 the amperage, but double the voltage. so the answer is equal"

Its weird I have always read on RUI that light is bad for roots. This would seem to run counter to that!
would this work http://www.amazon.com/LED-Wholesale...ADW8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334199142&sr=8-1 ? or does it need to be a regular inline duct fan and not a booster?

I think that Question should be directed to the https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/ forums, but anyways, what are your ambient temps, room/cabinet volume, light wattage, other heat loads (ballasts) etc???
EDIT: Ok sorry I read back and saw your past posts and you had room dimensions there. Damn the 600 moves fast always playing catchup

maybe not for the particular crop they are growing, but in general roots dont like light. I also just noticed how dens the foliage is, not much light looks like it could get through that.

I think that the higher the voltage the lower the current the less power loss to Joule/resistive heating in the wire. At the change from 110-220V in theory 110v would be less efficient, but in the real world the difference is sweet FA. But at higher voltage its significant. Thats why all main feeder lines from powerstations are high voltage 110 kV or more but really low amps.

Due to moving into a new house i havent posted in a loooonngggg time! I now have more room and will be the caregiver for my mom and myself, so i'll be aloud 24 plants instead of just my 12. Exciting things to come! Mean while here's whats cooking in my garden....
6 weeks flowering ~ Purple Elephant "Purple Urkel x Hash Plant" ~ DWC 5 gallon
7 weeks of flowering ~ Emerald Jack "Jack Herer x Emerald OG" ~ 10 gallon dirt
4 weeks of flowering ~ Purple Elephant ~ 18 gallon DWC ~ I have to tie this big bitch up soon cause the branches dont hold the weight and they're gonna get huge! 18 gallon DWC gets BIG yields and HUGE plants! I love it!
8 weeks of flowering ~ Purple Elephant ~ 5 gallon DWC ~ She's getting some awesome colors!
8 weeks 2 days of flowering ~ Grateful Casey "Casey Jones BX" ~ 10 gallon dirt
Enjoy!!!!!!!!

'Morning, D 
Some very nice pR0n in the 600 tonight!
How about some baby pics?
Deep Blue F2:
MTF:
(fingers crossed for minimal nanners)
Three BMF with a head start.
And a JDB Romulan still waiting to be seen:
Sprouts are only 3 days since planting.
Been busy over here, and going to be prepping my soil for transplanting into 5-gallon pots.
Hope your day goes well!
And a little musical interlude from a phenomenal bass player:

If I could play like that, I could afford such a swarthy black frock as that!
I'm working on it!
Maybe in a lifetime or two...
Here's a tune familiar to many out there, I'm sure:
