I have the larger cool cab and I also have a DIY cab. I have grown exclusively in the DIY cab until this grow using the cool cab. It's definately not quiet so dont put it in your bedroom. There isnt a whole lot of room in there and humidity is a bit of a problem at the moment. I am going to add a moisture bucket in there tonight (damp rid). I do have 8 plants in there right now so its a bit crowded but as soon as I can identify the males, they will be removed. There are no light leaks from the front but I can see light escaping out the back. I think the website says the caddy and mini caddy have small light leaks in the front...not sure, but i remember reading it on the site.

light leaks can be taken care of if there are any...other than humidity do u think the mini caddy is a decent system? i know u use the larger one but other than size they are comprable systems....is it enough of a system to always have good smoke?

If you DIY you can probably save about $500.

Even with the cool cab, there are still height limitations. Many of us that have it have taken out the top shelf and re-mounted the light to get the extra verticle growing room.
