Sounds like you're just fucked bro. The Po Po are about to bust down your door, for all that energy you're using!!

stop feeding the pigs! saying shit like this, making a statement then asking a question(as if we dont understand what you trying to do.), if i was a mod i would delete this thread and ban you for inciting fear.
your an asshole i just wanted to let you know. and no they will not catch you with heat sensing equipment for 12 42w CFL.
END OF THREAD.

CFL's are not even worth mentioning as far as a heat sig. that might be noticed, but if you're that worried about it, line your closet with some Dynamat.

Ur gonna need a lot more lights. If u get caught it wont be cause your power consumption or heat signature with a grow that sized.

OK. I'm not getting involved in the arguments but here's my take on it.
I live in the UK where, depending upon where you live, there are police helicopters, complete with thermal imaging cameras. Some counties have them, some don't.
About 3 years back I had a 600w HPS grow going in the loft. No tent, no insulation. One night, at 2 a.m. a police helicopter hovered about 30 feet above it for a good 10 minutes, pointing straight at it.
Hence the fairly large wedge of cash spent on polyshield the next day.
Nothing came of it, but I lived in a fairly 'high-profile' sports facility at the time and the grow was intentionally placed above the shower blocks (Where I figured they would assume the hot water tanks to be) and a bust would have been a major embarrassment if it went wrong/was a mistake.
Now, although you are only running cfl, there is 504w there which is pretty close to what I had, possibly more on the heat signature due to the greater inefficiencies of cfl. However, I think my mistake was a loft grow without insulation. If it's in your house, in a cupboard or tent etc, I see no problems. It's when it's producing heat somewhere not expected that it may be a worry. Then again, my mate (a non-grower) has his washing machine and tumble dryer in a shed in the garden and he hasn't been busted yet!

Heat sensing equipment?
