I know its not exactly what your looking for but I might suggest picking up some reference texts on cold hardy cacti.
This and This
might be good places to find information. I have limited experience with cold climates, 90% of my plants are tropical or sub tropical, but I have read the second book in the past when borrowing it from a local library and it is quite informative on caring for cacti in wet climates. The first reference is older and I have not personally read it but it has good reviews and I have seen it cited several times in the past when researching plants for my own area, cooler winter with heavy rain, so it may be worth a read if you can find them.
Also, from what I find online it looks like you are located in Zone 8 - 9 depending on your location and distance from water. This is pretty close to my own climate area with the exception of rain fall. I can recommend you try growing Echinocereus spachianus, Echnopsis pachanoi, and as /u/GregTJ suggested Echinopsis terscheckii provided that your growing bed is sufficiently drained (maybe even a layer of grit or lava rock 12 or so inches down). If you looking for more barrel or clumping plants you might try Thelocactus tulensis, Gymnocalycium baldianum, and Echinocactus texensis which I have grown outside unprotected during the winter, however all of my plants are potted and drain freely when it rains here so I cannot comment on their habits when planted in the ground.
If you have a drill, you can buy a diamond drill bit and drill holes in the bottom of your pot pretty easily. I just ordered these on Amazon and got them yesterday:
FireKingdom 5pcs 12mm 1/2" Inch Diamond Drill Bit Hole Saw for Tile Glass Marble Granite Fiberglass Ceramic Tool https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O1SAY58
I cut holes in 5 or 6 pots last night and it worked great. And now I can go to thrift stores and find cute containers to use :)
I tried this before. I had an Echeveria Solstice that ended up pretty etiolated. They're highly dependent on sunshine, so this was no surprise. It wouldn't even keep over winter.
However, I found that some of my cactuses were OK, only over the winter, if I supplemented a window with about three of these, two of which were closer to 6400 K (color temperature).
Again, that was 3 really high powered lights all shining on the same area, and this was just to keep them happy while relatively dormant over winter. Definitely no permanent substitute for natural light, sorry.
I have this in two foot and 4 foot. Highly recommended. All my plants are nice and vibrant and not etiolated at all.
And I also have this for quarantine plants and at work for my desk plant. Works great and is dimmable, and each light can be turned on individually or together. Also has a few built in timers.
Also, as an aside, when you do get your cactus a light make sure you acclimate it. Just like us, cactuses sunburn.
I bought it 6 yrs ago...only have given it water sparingly. It's gone from time-to-time w/o sunlight, and has sat mainly on a windowsill in a coldish climate (Wash., DC). It's a resilient little fucker!
I've read that I should cut it with a sterile knife above the rot line (needles are soft but not brittle down there), let the wound heal (shouldn't take more than a few days, given how small it is), then set it on top of the new soil and let it take root for a week or two before spinkling water. I just bought some of this soil for it -- http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002Y0CFNY
Does that sound like a solid plan? Or maybe I should delicately remove it from the current soil and see if it's really rot/mold, or just lack of nutrients/water? I really rarely give it any water (it's gone months and months, and then only a little bit). I'd like to start taking better care of it though...
We had an infestation in our house recently (turned out it was under the trash can in the garage) and we had a bunch of flies about a week after we found the white guys. Might wanna check under the sink, and hose out the trash cans, if you find any more. Also you could get sticky paper and put it in the top corners of your windows to see what you catch. Could be house flies, could be gnats.
Excellent idea to let it callus and start over. My friend overwaters everything, I can't convince him to let the top of the soil dry out. Good luck!
This is the best one I’ve had! It was recommended by a friend and provides great light! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01IVQ96KY?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
If the bonsai are less than 3-4 inches and right underneath the line of the lamps they may be ok! Wider than that it won't cover well.
If you want a bulb type try one that is a COB (chip on board, brighter, newer LED tech) bulb - https://www.amazon.com/Spectrum-CANAGROW-Hydroponics-Seedlings-Vegetables/dp/B07J6B3J4R/ref=sr_1_18?keywords=COB+grow+light&qid=1561990303&s=gateway&sr=8-18
Also you can rig some sort of stand for the hangable ones but I find it super easy to hook them under wire shelves.
Thank you! That bulb looks great, although i don't think i can handle the purple. I'll see what COB i can find in white. Is this similar? seems too cheap but....

For the lights i got, they are all 4 heads facing the 1 small Serissa about 4" away. Glad to hear that's not too close! I can still return them though cuz i just got them, so if that bulb is better then i'll get it if a similar one comes in white/yellow. Purple would make me crazy.
Yeah if you really want him to be happy I’ve heard great things from lots of people about these lights
This site is good and have some real great range of lights. Personally Im a fan of this type of design, version 1, more expensive and stronger light with 96W , version 2, slightly smaller size, price and light with 65W. Or you could go with the more traditional shop light style, 1 tube is 30W. If you want something cheaper then this one from amazon looks okay at 22W.
​
LED lights are more expensive to buy but much cheaper to run in the long run (electricity bill). Saw you asking about the energy bill, use this site or one of many similar to check out how much it would increase. Just put the watts in the Power Consumption (the numbers in bold above), many use grow lights for 16 hours each day so put 16 hours and then how much your electricity cost is.
I think this is the same, I got some of the 45W panels but it looks like they only offer it in 75W now. Hopefully this link works.

Not the OP but the cactus is probably Acanthocereus tetragonus, and here's a dude selling on amazon. Hope it helps!
You could try I guess! I have no idea how warm they get.
This is the sort of thing I use. Not this specific make/model but they probably all come from the same factory with different branding printed on. If you’re doing any appreciable volume of cactus seeds it’s very helpful. It’s good for rooting cuttings and degrafted plants too.

I have this and it is excellent! Very very bright, full spectrum light the sun, and I am growing cactses and trees under it and they are thriving!
I use bleach and H202 as well depending on the use case. I use copper for when I'm spraying soils and keep the others for hydroponic use normally. No specific reason except that the copper stuff is just amazing. I've tried using bleach and water mixed on soil to manage fungus and its okay but a shot with the copper spray and most things just dissolve immediately.
This is what I use but the price on amazon is kinda... ouch, lol.
If you decide to try some it is probably more economical if buying online to shop elsewhere or get the concentrate and mix yourself.
i don't have that grow light, but i do have some of these

my succs love em, it'll take a while to see how the cacti will feel but i don't foresee any problems
Thank you for the information. Hopefully someone else can identify the species. Does [this] (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cactus-Focus-Repotting-Mix-Litre/dp/B007797622) look suitable for the soil?
Oh also, the pot that it's in doesn't have holes at the bottom, is that a problem? I'd like to have this indoors on my desk, and as such don't want stuff draining out, unless there's a solution to that.
https://www.amazon.com/Hyperikon-Temporary-Construction-Portable-Waterproof/dp/B07DJXV74L I'm just sending this link for the picture. My light fixture is basically this concept. It has a cage and a long cord but you can choose the light you want to put in it and my light is a much lower power. Mine is pretty old so maybe they don't sell the ones which are exactly like mine but this is getting close.
This is what I have been using.

Im in the U.K. so all are indoors and under a grow light when needed. I haven’t watered since the end of November as my flat is pretty cold. I just really don’t know what happened, haven’t had a loss in ages so really gutted!

I use grow lights now because my non-cactus succulents are in front of an east facing window. I got this T5 fluorescent somebody recommended in r/succulents for my succulents. I bought the reflector later but they have a model with reflector included. I think it's generally recommended that the light temperature be daylight, 5,000K-6,500K, and as high lumens as you can get, but most lights don't usually specify lumens. I just got into cactus a few weeks ago, and so I just bought this T5 for my expanding cactus collection.
Thanks for the reply. So not a hell of a lot going wrong.

That's the mix I used.
Also, is there anything I can do to keep it upright naturally? I anchored it using string, but that actually seemed to make it weaker.

Sorry, I sent the wrong link. This is the cactus soil I found.
