Hey, I grow in my attic and currently using 900w LEDs but really want to give HPS a go. Only reservation I have is in terms of security. Is a 600w HPS gonna be visible to "copper choppers" flying overhead?

Lot of us use 600w hps in attics. As long as you are in tent and have good air movement and air exchange you will be good as gold

Mmmm air exchange isnt the best. Using a self built room that's 3x2ft with the door of it kept half open and a fan blowing in from the gap in the door. It's the only way to keep my temps at 25oC.
Will be the same with HPS.
Guess I'll see what my yeild is like from this grow and if I'm getting 1oz or more from each plant I'll stick with the LED's for now.

What kind of extraction and filter you got?
Only aiming at an ounce per plant with a 900w LED? How many plants are under it?

3x Northern lights auto and about to be 3 seedlings addes (had a few dud seeds that the seller is posting out replacements for)
Have only ever grown 2 at a time under a 300w Mars LED before and best I got with my newbie skills was 23g off one plant.
I say aiming for meaning I'm hoping for 1oz per plant and anything else would be a bonus.
Messed up loads with 1st 2 grows under the 300w but added a 600w and NOT making stupid mistakes this time (apart from assuming the stems would bend as easily as my last plants and snapping off the top 3 nodes worth of growth from 2 main stems on 2 of my Northern lights!)
Harvested WAY too early before too. Not this time though!

Never heard of a cam that detects certain light bulbs before. It's the heat they look for. I doubt they'd knock on my door because a section of the room is 3-4℃ hotter than the rest

I've gor a big fan blowing directly over the bulb so the heat can be spread evenly arouns the tent and more easily sucked by the fan.
HPS will give you away because it generates much more heat than the others and creates a hotspot which can be easily detected if you are in an open space . Bare in mind nobody is going to waste time looking for a single 600 hps
