Just a little pissed and wanted to rant. Can't exactly do so to real people in my life, as they wouldn't exactly understand (also, see rule #1).
Started moving into the new apt where I'll start my little op. Mapped out the breaker box. Had seven 15 amp breakers on the box, and while I doubted they were all for my apt I figured great I should be fine.
So last night I mapped em out. Flip. Nothing goes off. Flip. Nothing goes off. Flip. Nothing goes off. Fuck. WTH.
Flip. Off goes BOTH bedrooms - overheads and ALL outlets, one of the bathrooms (the one adjacent to the bedrooms), couple of miscellaneous overhead lights, including one in the hall not even in the apt.
The whole damn apt. only has three 15a breakers - that big one, one for the living room, and one for the kitchen.
Now I'm not really sure where to put shit. Winter should be fine, but in the summer with ACs I don't know how I'm going to do this. Don't exactly wanna snake big fat extension cords from the kitchen through the living room through a bedroom and into the final bedroom. Yeah, that won't raise any suspicion....
The cab will be a 400w hps, 220w cfl, fans, etc. Was going to be all-in-one, but now I might need to do two cabs - flower in the bedroom and mums/clones in the living room (eeks!).
Argh. Worst part, landlord was like, "hrm, that's odd, 60a is code and when I had the electricians here the said it was up to code."
Oh yeah, then I found the fridge alone - with a totally unusable stuck in the corner behind the fridge clear in the opposite end of the apt from the bedrooms, etc. - its on a 4th 15a breaker.
So I feel a little assed out on this one. Hell if I'm going let it wreck my plans, though. Just not going to be as simple as I had hoped.
/rant. Thx for listening internets.
