Well, after a very long night, I got them in the room and cranked em for a while after upgrading a breaker so that it could handle the load. I'm now running 18 amps on wire that was originally intended for a 15amp breaker anyone with electrical experience think there will be a problem with this? If that wasn't bad enough, the breaker I replaced was the 15 amp and arc fault combo and I put in just a 20 amp to handle the 18 amps. So no more Arc Fault!!! Hopefully someone with more experience than me can tell me this will be safe...
STOP!!!
What you are doing is dangerous! I have little electrical experience, but, I do know that putting a higher amperage breaker in place of a lower rated one can seriously overload a circuit! Please! Change it back and grow smaller or divide your grow on two separate circuits! Please!
Namaste, mess
