I see, always a good idea to have em on if you can though, i know it aint easy if you have to get your head down in the same room but i'd hate to loose my crop cause of mould which can happen without airflow. Just the other night a switched my lights off in the cab and without thinking switched off the extractor, 12 hrs later when i switched them on my girls were wet from condensation probably more due to the fact that my cab is metal but with extraction running all the time its not a problem. You could also use a fan speed controller to adjust your fan speed so it aint as loud but with the size of fan you got its gonna be anyway.

i have it on a controller on the lowest setting but because of the size of the fan (10" rvk) it it quite quiet and it still moves a lot of air, i had to go out yesterday and spend £120 a dehumidifier because it was getting upto 80% because of the drop in temperature, and because im pulling air round in circles round my room through my tent. not ideal i know :-?

I paid 8 quid each for my doors and being there for kitchens the hinge holes cut for you. Total build cost so far is about 120 quid, sounds alot but im building 2 large cabs out of 18mm mdf.

how big are the ones that you have made out of the doors then? i have priced the wood up at B&Q and it was about £90 i think for a cab that is 2.4m long 1.4 deep 2m high. i might build it out of wood then get a big door from ikea to put on it,

Sod BnQ Mr G, i had all my wood cut to size and delivered saved me alot of faffing about. My cab is 110cm high 90cm wide and depth of 90cm as well. This is purely for clone grows, for seed grows i would have made it a bit bigger but i have 3 other cabs i use and i just dont have the space for a bigger cab. Im going to have two of these cabs but one sitting on top of the other as i have space to go up but not for a long cab, each cab will have one 600w using a air cooled hood, the plan is 20 clones in 4.5ltr pots and aim for an oz per plant. The doors are 90cmx40cm in white and the cheapo end of the range but they are perfect for what i need. If you dont fancy lugging wood and waiting on the BnQ staff to get their arse in gear try these guys, ofcourse that depends on where you live but there are plenty of places to get your wood.
