Man i have this nice room but i can barely pump anything out it. basically it has 3 outlets in the room, i checked the breaker and see nothing that indicates there is more than 120v 15 amp breaker connected to that room.
so basicaly i have
400 watt HPS lamp - 3.7 amps
Dehumidifier model AD400 - 2.15 amps
6in exhaust fan - .97 amps
10x24x CFL bulbs @ .44a each - 5amps
2x oscillating fans ???no idea how many amps
so damn im at like 12.8amps which seems kinda high...worried about burning the place down.
so looks like i really need to add a new circuit. good thing is that the breaker is literally on the opposite side wall as this room. so i can drill a hole in the wall and run a new 15 amp circuit in there and it would solve my headaches.
question is, i have on idea how to get a new 15amp circuit. the subpanel on the opposite side wall has an extra 15amp slot already installed in there, that is suppposed to power some outside outlet that never gets used. so i need to reroute it somehow...and then i could just go to OSH or home depot and buy those outlets myself and install them somewhere.
i really need some help you guys! any places to look for DIY info.
