    Window type A/C unit versus portable A/C unit.. whats the difference?

    Besides $200? Just the portability? I am trying to decide if I want to spend the $500 on a portable A/C / Heater or if it just makes more sense to make a little place for a window A/C unit to sit so it can blow into my tent and then buy one of those thermostat outlets.... I kinda live where it...

    Environmental controls?

    So my current set up is outside, and it has been really cold lately. Soon, though, its going to be in that weird spring-y inbetween time where its hot somedays and cold on others. I have a little space heater out there that does a good job, and a big 8" fan exhausting air out of the tent, but I...

    This is what the water looks like in my area; do I need to filter it?

    http://www.project7water.org/currentwqd.pdf Water quality report by the MWS here. Someone told me if it was over... I think 400 PPM (TDS?) coming out of the tap I should filter it? I do not have a PPM/TDS meter, and to that end, can anyone recommend a decent one? Cheaper is better but if cheap...

    How do clean your setup between runs?

    Got a new setup last weekend but it was used and pretty groady; calcification and some minerals left over from nutes I'm sure. Is there a standard plastic cleaner/solvent that won't mess up my plastic ? The gf suggested lime away but just don't know anything about it. Thanks RIU!
