Are Laptop cooling fans enough?

**chrisurbs2008** · 11-12-2009, 12:12 PM

Im building a stealth grow box that is about 27inches high 30inches long and 15inches wide I have 2 Laptop fans and they are wired to a DC adapter, I cannot find the cfm on any of the model numbers online. They are both DC BRUSHLESS, just wondering if anyone knows the average cfm on a laptop fan.

or even if 2 laptop fans will work (intake and exhaust)

thanks in advance

you think 2 exhaust and one intake would work or would you say 2 and 2?

What kind of light are you going to run in the box? That's not a very large box. Do you have pix of the back of the fan where the label is?

I was going to run a 125w cfl or 3 fourty two watters, I dont have pics yet but the fans are pretty small I'll get some pics though.

cfls DO convey heat. not a lot but they do. and the more the hotter,

u should plug all three in and put them together, and put a therometer, temp cheacker thing who ever the fuk, and c how hot they get and then plug the 125 in and c how hot that gets
