These Fans Are The Real Deal !!

Look at the Can Fan Max (10" is what i have). Does the same thing... moves more air, and is pretty quiet. The only reason I'd buy one of these now is if it substantially quieter than what i have.

You say to much for a fan well how much is the price of freedom to you?
I would spend as much money as i could if i could to make a project like this as silent as i could, while trying to move as much air as i can .

YO HOTWIRED! ha HA! Remember the S&P 200 I ordered, and fried I believe? Well I finally got around to calling hvacquick.com and they sent an email to S&P out of Florida to send me a brand new one. Then I'll either ship this one back to them, or pitch it he said. I didn't think to call really since it only has a 15 day return time and I've had it for 2 months now, plus I probably f'd it up! Now my only problem is, I really REALLY don't think that I need the 200!! If you say it's that powerful! I just want the 150! oh well I'm stoned and out. Thanks to everyone for keepin the thread goin. S&P mixvents kick ass, so does www.hvacquick.com 's customer service!

I told ya to give that a try :-o

Ya those people at hvac are nice, and know a bit about what they are selling. You could have probably asked for an exchange too.

If you do use the 200 wire it up on low speed first and do a test run by just plugging it in. The only way to keep the volume down is to install it in your attic if you have one. Far away from the source you are pulling air out of.

I was thinking about setting it up like this.. filter - duct - light - duct - fan. There would be about 2 feet of ducting from the filter to light, then like..6 foot of ducting from light to fan. I'm hoping that maybe this will help with the power a bit! Maybe even a Y duct adapter connected to the fan so that it's pulling air from the grow room to clean, then just pulling extra clean air from the attic ( half the power is to the filter..half to nothing) ??

Just ordered a TD-150 and fan controller for my small build I am working on now. Still deciding if I want to run a seperate fan for my cooltube and then use this for cleaning the air in the cabinet. My cab dimensions are:

Flowering Section: 34in wide, 22in deep and 38in high
Utility/clone Section: 16.5in deep, 17.5in wide and 38in high

from my calculations, this gives me about 23 cubic feet total to work on cooling.

DAMN!!

Fuck me for forgetting to do a proper write up. I gave up doing reviews cause no one gives rep. Plus I'm crying cause I'm still at -rep :-o

But anyway I'll throw you a bone. Please DO NOT use a speed controller with these fans. YES, they will work fine, BUT they hum like a mother fuxer when you put a speed controller on them. You can use that fan wired on LOW speed to cool your light (if it's a 400 watt and under) and clear the air in the room. Just leave one end of the tube open and suck right out of the room, thru the light and into the attic. If the air you're sucking on is around 78 degrees or lower you should be fine with temps.

IMO I'd go with an even smaller fan but it's up to you. Once you get familiar with inline fans you will get it down easily :-o

well the vortex inline fans are about 10 dollars difference in price and you only need a 6inch where you need an 8inch with these fans you recommend

make sure you setup has the fan sucking air from the fan pushing it out and need to be at the end of the setup. duct, light, duct, filter, fan

Well the controller was only $20 and if I don't use it on this setup I'm sure it will get used down the road. I plan on going duct - cooltube - duct - electrical room - filter - fan. Or I'll be doing a separate run for the cooltube all together and just sealing that run. We'll see - I still need to get the backing on my cabinet then seal it up to get some temp readings prior to building my ducting. I'll be using a lumatek 250 in the flowering area possibly with some CFL's to fill in the area and probably some CFL's in the veg/mother area.

Overall this won't be a very large build but I am trying to go stealth (live in a townhouse) and just get a feel for things.
