sarsnavy05 - I know it's been a while and you have probably changed your system since these last posts, but I had a question in regards to it. How much was this system running you on electricity? I am in Florida and a few things I want to grow (tomatoes, lettuce, and strawberries) don't hold up well in our hot, humid, and almost year-round weather. I have some space inside to do a small indoor system, but not sure if the benefits (produce) outweigh the costs.


You can calculate exactly how much it will cost you by determining your kwh rate, wattage used, and hours ran per day.

To determine your kwh rate, Google your zip code and kwh rates...a quick search turned this up http://www.tampaelectric.com/residentia ... gyplanner/

Then Google electricity cost calculator. This is an example: http://www.citytrf.net/costs_calculator.htm

Phivtoosyx - thanks for that info. Found out my system only cost $0.06 a day to run! That's awesome! I'm curious to know how many watts he is using with those lights each day.
