Ok im moving into a trailer in the next couple days and i know fire and trailers don't mix at all, and saltwater and electricity easily causes fires...... so im looking at getting some gfci outlets. Now since im really broke after all the bills plus deposits today (got paid today... $1875.00 and im already down to $230. Sucks getting paid once a month, im broke already lol. damn tank. ) I can't afford to buy 3 at 12 bucks a pop. Im cruising sleazebay and find a set of 3 for $20. Now my question is....... they are 15 amps each. I will probably only use 2, since there is only 2 outlets where i want my tank. I have to take carefull consideration where i want my tank cuz its an old old trailer and im worried about the floor giving, so there really is only one spot i can put it. If i add it all up.... this is my electrical list starting from the top of the tank to the bottom.
1 20" current pc light
1 moon light led on the current fixture ( i know its all together, but it has its own plug for the led)
1 24" Hagen GLO t5ho
1 koralia 1
1 mj 400 with sureflow mod 1600 gph
1 normal output t5 stand light
1 clamp on light with bulb for cheato
1 skilter 250 skimmer
1 stealth 250 watt heater
1 quiet one 2200 return pump
1 mj 400 in sump
1 air pump to help my little skimmer along.
So thats 12 items total running my tank. I currently have them on 2 very old powerstrips with drip loops, but i have already had an accident and almost burnt one up. So im getting new powerstrips and gfci outlets. Will 2 15 amp gfci outlets be ok with all this stuff plugged into them? Oh and 1 powerstip has all my lights and things that need to be turned off at night plugged into it, and thats plugged into a timer
