30watts, but equivalent to 150watts
220-240v

Hi Danny, sounds like a perfect time for what we used to call "Lemon

Technology", excuse the obvious pun, but suck it and see.

I have used plant lights indoors during winter for my tenderest plants,

worked O.K., but it tended to force them, so they were even more

vulnerable.

Good Luck.
