Whoa, serious deja vu with the fan configuration debate. I think it also depends on the location of the tent and the ambient temps. I don't have a cooling fixture so I can't say for sure but I'll throw what I think anyway. If you have access to fresh air, or the tent is in a cool place like a basement, then I would draw that air through the fixtures and out, and use the inline and filter to draw out heat and odor to the exhaust. I'm pretty sure that's what genuity said. Sorry if it's redundant.

Im running Filter>Hood>Fan>Exhaust, creates a lot of negative pressure in the tent but i dont mind. Almost want to remove the filter but its already attached and im lazy. lol

You don't have to read the pages here for that kind of info. The pictures speak for themselves. Just go back even a few pages and you will see. :peace:

get a variable fan speed controller...they become priceless after awhile. specially with ambient temp changes.

as far as the venting debate goes...Im all about pulling. for two reasons. 1. you have much more cfm loss pushing through turns and curves 2. You run the risk of blowing your ducting off your hoods. therefor pushing more heat into your room.

Point 2 is a good point.

Edit. Getting back to you on the Mesa. That's nice gear. So that's a guitar rig, what's your style? I know how broad that question is but if you could put it in a nutshell.

To that point, if you have any 'leaks' in the system you are going to be shooting hot air into the room. I'm all for pulling as well. Negative pressure beats positive pressure in my world. Plus neg pressure is supposed to make your bulbs last longer. My fan has lasted me a long time and it's cheaper to replace than my nice bulb.

And of course, pulling just works with how my room is setup, lol... so it's an easy choice.

I used to grow in a 3x3 and pulled huge buds but it also depends on the strains your trying to grow. Different strains = different size buds.

On the air debate, pulling is the way to go.

HID bulbs work better with air being pulled over them, it's to do with the pressure of the bulb, and I have checked this with my mate who is a Bsc electrical engineer and designs lighting systems and shiznot for buildings. So always better to pull air over lights according to the pro's.

lol my 400 cfm hydro farm fans are more expensive then my bulbs...fan = $100 1k bulb = $49, 600 watt bulb = (idk cause my bulb came with my eballast) I run a sylvania...people say they are junk, but my buds say different. Although I want to try an EYE out.

I got a 465 cfm fan for $80 and I'm using an 1kw EYE. I got it for $60 with no box... but the source has dried up and I'm really not looking forward to paying 150 or whatever they are new. I could go cheaper, but to me they really do make a difference. I have no proof, but I will say the light they give off is really pretty, lol. I couldn't look at strait orange light anymore. Grow is in my bedroom and i'm home all day.
