• WALL OUTLET

  • HOW MANY LIGHTS CAN I RUN OF ONE WALL OUTLET?

    • WALL OUTLETS IN THE USA ARE 110 VOLTS. THE AMOUNT OF POWER THEY PROVIDE IS DEPENDANT ON THEIR FUSE SIZE, WHICH IS MEASURED IN AMPS. TYPICALLY HOUSE OUTLETS ARE 15 AMPS, UP TO 20 AMPS. USING THE EQUATION - WATTS = VOLTS X AMPS OR POWER = VA, A TYPICAL OUTLET PROVIDES 110 X 15 = 1650 WATTS.

      A REDBACK PULLS 330W AT 100% WHICH MEANS FIVE REDBACKS CAN RUN OFF ONE TYPICAL 1650 WATT WALL OUTLET AT 100%.

      A MOZZIE PULLS 150W AT 100% WHICH MEANS ELEVEN MOZZIES CAN RUN OFF ONE TYPICAL 1650 WATT WALL OUTLET AT 100%.
