And using this adapter to power it: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3807944

Tom... I'm sorry I didn't stop by sooner. I hope you haven't bought the power supply yet. All you need is any cord that plugs in... cut it, then attach each wire to the two on the fan. Go to walmart or target... find a good deal of small extension cords, you should be able to get one for $3 or 4 bucks. Or you can just cut the cord off an old lamp you don't like... always fun to redecorate that way.

The fan looks pretty good. I got some 100cfm fans from a local electronics store for $15 each. I also ordered some for about $20 each delivered... so about on par with that fan.

EDIT: Cruzer below is talking about milli amps. I am probably not getting the most out of my fans becuase I don't know anything about that. I'm just cheap. So I might listen to cruzer if you want your fan to work at it's best.

You know they rate those fans by cfm and i didnt see what that radio shack fan pushed.
I seen jigs post where he found 100 cfm fans. I havent found 100cfm.

After doing some research online I found and bought three of these twister fans. From what I found they run fine in higher temps, move the most air at 70cfm at 18 dba so they are pretty quiet too. The blade removes for easy cleaning.

I got these about a year ago so there may be others on the market that are better now. But I can say, these work pretty dam good.

As far as a power supply I bought one of those from Radio shack too. I have heard of people just taking an old cell phone charger, cutting off the wires and using that too.

As long as its a 12v converter it should work. I think the deal is MA (milli amps) If you got that matched up with the fan you will get the most out of it.

Anyways, hope that helps, heres a link to one.

Thanks dude I think I will be going with few of those fans

Check out the new bong guys!
It is a Weed Star Mad Professor w/ a weed star ash catcher. The bong and ash catcher are both 18.8 slit hole diffusers. The bong has a removable 18.8 perc also. Check the pics:

WTF

Man, I guess I been smokin doobs for too long. What the fuck is that?

Ok, I get the bong part, but then the second pipe that fits into it, that thing is suspose to catch the ash? is that it? then the smoke goes through the water in the bong and then you get your hit.

Trippy man. I like bongs but I dont like dealing with that stinky water.
Hows the water look after you use it a bit? I wonder if without ash and crap the THC could be extracted form the water...

Yup that's the ash catcher, a bowl fits into it and it will keep the nasty ash out of the bong.

That ash catcher is the only part that gets really nasty water in it, but that way it keeps the bong and percolator nice and clean/fresh. I don't think it takes much THC away from the bud, THC isn't water soluble so I might lose a little bit but def not much
Thanks for stopping by guys :bigjoint:

DAMN. NICE. BONG.

If you don't mind my asking, how much did a pretty thing like that set you back?

We've got 1 real glass shop in my town these days and I feel like they charge WAY too much.

Good grow Tom. Nice bong too. Lots of good stuff in here besides a couple of ball busters who didnt know what they were talking about. Keep up the good work man. Really digging the bong. Never had a perk before.

OK, you converted me.
My friends have been trying to do it for years but I always prefered to roll.

After seeing your new bong I went to my local headshop and picked one up with an ash catcher, its all one piece but works good.
Oh and a Ice pincher, good idea. The diffuser at the end of the intake is new to me too.

Heres a pic.



It rocks! Only takes a small amount for a hit.

Thanks man.

Well here is my great white shark plant from greenhouse seeds and Royal Kush by G13 Labs. They will both be mother plants and will supply lots of cuttings for me :bigjoint:
The great white shark clones will be put into a 24 site aeroponic system and the royal kush i am not sure yet. The seedling is the royal kush and the rest are the GWS. Enjoy!
