This is a very simple job and will allow any cheap timer to switch up to 10 amps of current without the degradation of the contacts due to the transformer ballast. Hope this helps a bit. http://forums.www.planetskunk.com/files/strengthening_a_cheap_timer.jpg http://forums.www.planetskunk.com/files/where_to_place_capacitor.jpg http://forums.www.planetskunk.com/files/capacitor_soldered_inplace.jpg http://forums.www.planetskunk.com/files/finished_timer.jpg THanks to THwizH20 for permission to post this awesome tip here. :thumbsup :thumbsup

Guys (and gals) I need your help. During a recent house move a timer malfunction caused mother to flower. I quickly took new clones ,and as suggested here, put them under 24 hr light until they kicked on. They are ready to come out of the clone box, but when put into the grow box will the 18 hrs. I normally grow at turn them? Need some advice soon. Bazza 7 n.b. have let mother go on her way and she is producing some very handy buds so it hasn't been a total disaster. :thumbsup

Im pushing about 200wpsqft at the moment.. and Id like to keep light intensity at around 100wpsqft if I can. Either: I can buy a 400w kit and have 2x 400w's.. or sell my 400w and buy a 600w, or a 1kW. Now, I dont mind paying the bill for the 1kW, but would 2x 400w's do just as good? Or just get a 600w?
