    Cooling for 4 600 watt air cooled lamps

    I could not get 4-600w lights cool enough with one 450ish cfm fan. I had to break it into two different systems with two fans....

    Air cooled lights and two fans?

    Has anyone hooked up two fans to thier vented lights? One blowing one sucking? I happen to have an extra fan and was wondering how well this would work.

    wiring a light box to a breaker?

    Buy a little extra...you will not be able to stretch it if it's short. It will then become a 425.00 wire. I've been there.......

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    My humidity was in the 60-70% range. Trust me. I didn't want to buy or pay to run one....but now I dont have to worry about all that mold crap.

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    An AC unit is just not the ideal set-up for me...I looked into it every possible way. Besides that I built a distribution manifold and will be using coiled stainless tubing to get my nute solutuion to about 65 degrees. BTW My cooling system probably cost me about 1500.00 or more....I will...

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    I was wondering if a non 50/50 ratio on the nutes would cause an explosion of some sort.jk8-) + rep Thank you for all your insight, it is very helpful. One can never have enough information.

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    I'm already cooling the two of them with a 440ish cfm fan. I only have 6" hoods at the moment so adding a third 600 would probably be pushin it.... My canopy measures out to 2.5'X10' so I'm at 48w per sq. ft. right now. I'll have options with the new ballasts that are on the way(600/400...

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    I agree with you on a third 600 but I don't really want to add another 600w to my power consumtion. Ive already doubled my power bill...and I'm getting ready to plug in a 1/3 hp chiller. Besides that I think the 600's are a little to close at 14-16" off the canopy and the actual width of the...

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    I'm currently running 2 600w lights on a light mover covering a 3x10 area. I think this is part of my streching problem. I'm going to switch out the 2 600's for 3 400's. I'm going to keep them on the light mover to help bring light to the shadows(and the fact that I've already bought and...

    Need advice on attaching ducting to inline fans.

    I just wonder why it's to much to ask for an 1 1/2" flange on these fans. That would solve the problem.....

    Need advice on attaching ducting to inline fans.

    Get a piece of sheet metal ducting and cut it to about 6" then attach it to the fan with some self tapping screws. Then you'll have something to connect your flexable ducting to. This can be a real pain in the ass so bring your patience....

    Let's talk co2 and temps.

    I'm running co2 with a temps from 79-84, RH 48-53%. I'm doing an ebb & flow with 4 floods a day in rockwool grow cubes (very hard to overwater). Res temps are about 73 (I'm in the process of lowering them to about 65-68, waiting in parts). My girls are showing very minor signs of heat stress...

    Need Wiring Help for lights

    I see now that your using the model 103 so maybe it is 120v. What voltage are your lights?

    Need Wiring Help for lights

    It looks to me like you're trying to wire 120v plugs off of a 240v timer. Correct me if i'm wrong. here is a pic of my setup. 75% of 30 amps is 22.5 amps your 25 will be pushing it. Take this with a grain of salt...It makes me cringe when i see sloppy wiring.....do it clean.
