Yup, and the fan I currently use was also a curbside steal! apparently fans are going out of style these days, so keep your eyes peeled! lol that saves me a few bucks that I can't really spare right now.
It does have an issue though, turns off and on when you jiggle the cord. Nothing I can't fix with a screwdriver and a soldering iron... hopefully next time they will leave me their 1000watt ballast and a portable AC unit.... haha

Room is looking killer man. Going to have a great canopy of buds in that room. So you added a 4" intake bringing in fresh air from the outside and it dropped temps down 4-5? I may need to install a second intake then on the other side of my room. Good idea also with the glasses, I really need to pick up a pair heh, will go blind in these damn rooms.

shaweet...! im glad its workin out so far so good.. its typically great to have an outsiders point of veiw when im stumped.. =) like i said "typically" meaning sometimes, hahahha

@ lit man, just take pics with the lights out like clonex said, or to quote my response from the OTHER thread you posted this in, you might look into buying a rebuild kit for your mag ballasts, those black lines in your photos are you capturing the ballast turning the LAMP on/of rapidly, "firing the bulb". its too fast for your eyes to notice but NOT your camera, OR YOUR PLANTS.. i think thas pertty close to word for word, thats why digital ballasts are reportedly "more efficient" than mags, especially OLD MAGS the ignitor/capacitors start to lose functionality over time like most machines and need new parts inside.. lines = NOT GOOD

Are you using HPS? If so, take your pics through a pair of sunglasses and it'll get rid of the lines.

Lol yea bro, I saw 'em. I agree w/ you about how the digis don't do it. It's because they're using like 50,000 hertz, while a magnetic ballast is using no more than 1,000 hertz to fire the bulb. This is why they are the "recommended" ballast these days.

...but just as a way to get rid of the lines w/o rebuilding/getting a new ballast...Sunglasses :lol:lol
