Now, the more parallel circuits you have, the more current they will draw and the more power (AKA "heat") they will generate and that will need to be dissipated. So you have lots of devices plugged into your power strip and you plug another power strip into that with lots of devices plus another power strip, etc. Doing that, you could easily exceed the power rating of your house wiring or at least of the original powerstrip. ... So if you have a basement full of plants with grow lights plugged into power strips, plugged into power strips, plugged into power strips .... Even though the grow lights themselves (fluorescent) do not draw a lot of power, the accumulated demand creates a potential fire hazard. To say nothing about the damp environment... That's my thoughts. Thanks Edited by RAZD, : . Edited by RAZD, : ..by our ability to understand RebelAmericanZenDeist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

Apparently I am using 93.38 MB (373.52%) of bandwidth (25.00 MB plan)
When I only have 66 MB (0.27%) Storage Used and I am not actively posting pictures? Do search etc robots cruising the forums cause this? I know of one (1) picture I have linked recently on this forum (Message 7). I don't need to use these photobucket pictures on other forums, so as far as I can see this one picture is causing 93.38 MB of bandwidth usage for the month. How can I control this? Does the [thumb] command use less bandwidth than the [img] command? Thanksby our ability to understand RebelAmericanZenDeist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

Bandwith and data maxes are different things. A 25.00 MB plan would mean you can only download 25MB of data per month. Do you mean 25 Mbps? This is photobucket, which I have been using to store the images I post on threads here. I am currently well below that limit for stored pictures, that is not the problem.
I think the rest of your questions are irrelevant if you are on a standard internet plan. Bandwidth is not something that accumulates. It is the speed data is moving at a particular moment. Unless your plan has a data cap you do not have to worry about the pictures you link to. Except this is where the problem with photobucket is involved: they say my bandwidth use to view the pictures is way over their plan limit. I don't understand where this bandwidth usage is coming from, it's like the pictures are constantly being viewed over and over and over. and I don't have any control over it.

Remember the limit they are talking about is the sum of every access from every viewer. So if I look at it and you lokk at it the use is 2x. If three others look at it the use is 5x. And if we go back to check a detail it is 10x. okay, but I am being punished (pictures blurred out) for something I have no control over. and it's probably not even the picture being looked at but the thread being loaded for people to see the latest posts with nothing to do with the picture. that's not right. This has only cropped up since I paid for their basic plan. It looks like a sucker plan imho. by our ability to understand RebelAmericanZenDeist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

Move to imgur. I think I tried imgur and had some issues with it. Doesn't matter at this point, I caved and upgraded to unlimited bandwidth. Also I already have most of my images on photobucket Enjoyby our ability to understand RebelAmericanZenDeist ... to learn ... to think ... to live ... to laugh ... to share.

I noticed when copying formulas from wiki that they use latex, but not quite the same, so it needs some interpretation.
