With the T5 light on, both LED's at full power, and all the other fans running, the numbers are below 
watt 440 amp 3.68 volt 121.9
with the 2 flowering LED's off
Watt 124 AMP 1.23 Volt 123.2
----- These numbers seem really low! What the fuck!? DId i get jewed on my LED's?
Can I go ahead and assume that this is safe power usage on one outlet on a 20w breaker?

 Luckily all my plants were unharmed and the tent itself only recieved minor melt damage in one spot. The light and fan are fine too which is the expensive part.
Man that smelled terrible!
Pro tip: don't buy cheap electronics

I worry about you sometimes zombi3.
If you would've managed to burn down your garage that wouldve seriously been the icing on the stupid cake

Some things are out of my control dude. I've been running that exact setup off that timer for a year or more, something malfunctioned it wasn't me being stupid. But thanks lol

one thing to consider might be the gauge of any extension cords being used. I'm using a space heater with an extension cord that was initially 16 gauge, and i noticed that the cord became pretty hot. So i switched to the thicker 12 gauge cord, and that solved it. It's surprising how many electrical fires are started by overheated extension cords--

long or undersized cords will destroy shit that pulls a lot of current. i had a buddy that was running his freezer with a 50 foot cheap extension and the compressor gave out in under a year
