I was scared at first running elec! But I went down to home depot bought a book and talked with them. It is really easy to do if you hook up all your shit and start tripping breakers. I had a MMJ freindly electrician come over and he told me that running 2 1000w lights and a 600w wan't possible, even on a garage breaker, without tripping it. I ran one 1000 and my 600 with fans and one mini deep freezer and if I turned on a space heater it would blow the circuit.

If you run your lights and keep tripping breakers don't be afraid to read up and run your own wires. If you can read up and grow weed you can run wires! I just woldn't do it high! ;) GL brotha and hope all works out!

Nice! Excellent to have optimistic words cast my way. I read primers on This Old House on how to run a sub-panel and it seemed do-able, if need be. Just hoping that my future house has some good electric run so I don't even have to deal with it all. Or at least a well-labeled breaker box!
