Hey all, my friend is looking to start a small setup and I am trying to give him a hand. He will have a passive intake but I am not up to date with a decent out take these days. I was looking at a 8" single speed rhino fan that is speed control compatible, are they ok?. As he does not need an intake I've been unable to track down a single socket controller for min/max out take while being volt controlled. I found this for around £50 inc sensor but not sure if it adjusts volts to avoid humming. the price seems a little low compared to twin controllers but maybe it's good?. Any ideas on filters?, read some mixed reviews.

I think rhino do a fan speed controller with night and day temps and temp probe. But I cant find a single fan one.

Or this.

I don't think the SMS controller you linked is a variable transformer type. Might be wrong but based on the size of it I doubt it is. Plus the SMS ones that are a cross between digital and variable transformers are about £200.

Filters, I have never had trouble with rhino but recently heard of folks complaining about them. Mountain air are supposed to be better.

The rhino twin controller is fine to only use one fan with?. Yeah I've read some bad reviews about rhino filters too.

ive recently started using a rhino fan and filter first time and no problems so far, have got the twin speed 6'' high power one with a rhino filter, use to use can filters for ages, mountain air filters spose to be some of the best tho?

Use a res with timer on drip steaks (not FLOOD steaks) you will be good just put drip trays under the pots and set it to just a little less than they need every 24h to make sure you don't over drip the trays under the pots (unlikely) and you can get through your hols m8 hassle free

OR

Heavily overwater fill trays to and leavem
Like overwatrr on purpose

Sack driving back every 48 lol think of the money on juice!
