Hay Guys Anyone No Electrical Stuff
I'm wondering how much power I can draw from one rooms worth of electrical sockets. Naturally, I turn to bb4l
Things I have running: High end laptop 24" Dell lcd Stereo Cappuccino machine Blender Fridge External hardrive (needs own power) Force feedback joystick (needs own power) Phone (needs power) A few lights And I'm thinking of buying too desktop PC's, probably just one crappy CRT to be used between to two Does it matter if I spread out the power usage over two diff electrical outlets in the same room? Are there any devices I should be using to ensure enough power is getting to all of this stuff? What are the chances I blow something up? If I get any good advice I'll take some pics of my sweet set up |

Go the circuit breaker box and figure out how many breakers correspond to the outlets in that room.

Re: Hay Guys Anyone No Electrical Stuff
a typical outlet can only handle around 1500 watts I think, so add up your wattage on all your crap and make sure it's around 1500-2000 watts

Dude unless your appartment was built in 1934 you will be fine. You have at a minimum 20,000w left to work with. This is just a generalization, but you should be fine. I can break it down here, but Im sure you will find this boring.
I dont know [censored] about Electrical stuff. |
