Any second opinions on the exhaust, its a pretty decent amount of $$ between the 4" and the 6" inline fans

the inline fan is the exhaust. It is attached to a DIY cooltube and works wonderfully. I'm not sure on the CFM of the computer fans but im pretty positive that they are part of the problem and will be considered wasted money...

So last night i was messing around with stuff and ended up takeing the 2 middle fans i have on the back of the cab for intake off. Just from takeing those off i was able to get the temp to stay at 89 with the doors closed and a box fan sitting behind the cab to blow air through the little...

well, thank you for the input. I was just running over things and started to notice they weren't very strong. You think if i replaced my computer fans all with these at this link http://www.air-n-water.com/product/hv-4-red.htm it would work? I have 6 holes for computer fans already...

um... guys i still need help, anyone out there?

Hmmm shouldnt a 4" inline fan be enough exhaust for this size box, i'm not positive but i believe 170 CFM should be more then enough for the space. i went to the store and got a 4" fan ( http://www.air-n-water.com/product/hv-4-red.htm ) and it is currently pointing at the light bulb's rear. It...

Hello everyone, I'm new to growing and this is my first attempt at makeing a stealth cab.The dimensions of the grow area are 52"x20"x28" which is the bottom portion of the cab. It has a compartment on the top that is 16"x28"x20" . I have a 600w that i have made a cooltube out of a lantern...

I only ask because i thought mylar had a better light reflecting % then aluminum, which is what the shield would be made of.

I mean the reflector that the light kit comes with.

Hello, new here and was just wondering for a 16"x36"x34" box with the walls covered in mylar if i should worry about a shield? Probably will go with a 400-600w ballast. Plan on having atleast 6 cfls in there with the option for splitters going up to 12 cfls for growing 3-6 plants. I might post...
