I have a new freezer for rodents and, unfortunately, have to plug it in on the same outlet that my snake room runs off of.
So on that breaker/circut I have:
1) Standard upright fridge/freezer
2) Oil-filled, radiator style heater. So far it's been heating room on only the 600 watt setting and the thermostat is not cycling much at all even though it's cold.
3) Small ceiling fan (this could easily be shut off for the winter.
4) 4' shop light on timer for the snake room.
The room is in my garage but is insulated. Still, if the breaker were to trip early in the night I could have frozen snakes by morning.
There are some additional lights on the same circuit in the garage but they are rarely used.
If I'm asking for trouble with this setup I could move the fridge inside for the winter. Not ideal, but better than a bunch of sick or dead snakes.
