there are choppers out all day every day looking for growers....... or not. No county has the money to pay for the fuel (especially rite now) for choppers to fly around, usually when they do it's because they are tipped off. So watch who you tell about your operation and you should be good.

so there is nothing that can stop them from seeking the heat .

and is it good to have constant air flow like fresh air in and hot air out
Of course it's good to have constant air flow. And how are you going to stop them from seeking? The only thing you can do is stop them from seeing the IR sig. You need to use Google.

there was a bill passed which says that random flybys are an invasion of privacy and are illegal without a search warrant... that being said yea no city has random roving choppers looking for grows and if they do your not really going to show up on the radar unless you are over 3k watts at the absolute least....

also i would have to say that if the popo are thinking about getting a warrant to do a flyby you are already up shit creek without a paddle... if they dont fly over they will be knockin at your door with a warrant...

stay clean, DO NOT TELL ANYONE, DONT TELL A SOUL, NEVER SPEAK OF IT, and KEEP YOUR SHIT PRIVATE and youll have nothing to worry about...

oh ya and by the way KEEP YOUR TRAP SHUT, and have good air circulation

I have a military base and a hospital close by, I've never really been worried but it got me thinking after a chopper circled around a few times. I only have a 400 watt so it's nothing to worry about.

I wouldn't worry about it. In the US, the courts have ruled that using thermal imaging is a violation of the 4th Amendment and we all know how much cops respect the law (sarcasm). A warrant can not be obtained based off of thermal imaging unless there was some other probable cause. I'm not aware of any municipality that uses thermal imaging helicopters to bust indoor grow ops; it would be rather expensive.

I have heard of cops using thermal camera in their pratrol cars and if they find hot spots they'll find some excuse to come in but that is just hear say (I can't empirically back that claim up).

Don't panic and stay under the radar and remember, you are much more likely to be busted for smell than termal signature.

man im glad i read this ive been worrying about this for a while pigs in my area are super gay and this is something they would do. but ive heared from quite a few people lately that state highway patrol has helicopters that are searching this summer but nothing to back it up and the 4th amendment thing makes it sound like bs

Not that the Chopers should scare you if you do things right but, "No country has the money" are you serious we the US spends Billions on THE DRUG WAR and they say they are looking for meth an H but all I ever see is weed an coke busts.
