    DIY Cool Tube: Draw air from the grow chamber or from a separate intake?

    DIY Cool Tube: Draw air from the grow chamber or from a separate intake?

    I searched but could not find, so I'm asking. It's an office cabinet, 2x3x6 in which I will be using a separate carbon scrubber with a 206 CFM fan blowing out the top. For the cool tube, I have a 160 CFM booster fan to cool the 400w HPS but, should I leave the duct open-ended and draw the air...

    Longest Flowering Strain?

    I was looking thru my old journal and noticed that my Durban Poison wasn't ready after 15 weeks flowering. I have more DP at 10 weeks now. My new Chocolope seedlings are doing well enough to have taken a cutting from each. They're rooting now so I can sex them but I switched due to the...

    The age-old noob question: M or F?

    A quick update - the positive thoughts worked - it's a girl! Thanks for all the support. Now, it's Durban Poison in a SOG so my test clones should mature, maybe, by Christmas? HO HO HO Thankfully, Santa brought me an early gift - feminized Chocolope seeds from Attitude!

    The age-old noob question: M or F?

    Thanks, peeps. "She" is almost 3 months old so I hoped someone could tell by the preflowers but, I guess I'll be waiting for the cutting to root/veg/flower before I know. No balls. No balls. No balls, please. I want this plant to adopt me and be my mama! bongsmilie

    The age-old noob question: M or F?

    I looked at lots and lots of pics, most better than the ones I was able to take of the subject question so, I hope these are good enough for you to tell me --- is this a boy or a girl? Thanks in advance!

    Light Proof Intake 'How-To' (w/PIX)

    The noise from my computer fans isn't a prob but, if I could find a way to muffle the exhaust/scrubber fan, that'd be nice. Anyway, I used a carving knife to rip the foam rubber strips to 1" x 2", then attached them on their sides to the foam board so it stands 2" from the side of the cab...

    Light Proof Intake 'How-To' (w/PIX)

    I'm planning to add your light trap design to the outside of my "medicine cabinet," 7th1der so thanks for the idea! Your wood strips look to be about 1" x 1"? Considering the airflow constriction and the suggested mod to build it a little deeper, I found 2" x 2" flexible foam weatherstripping...

    You guys are great. I'm glad I posted my "dummie" problem. :hug: Be sure to check out your local Freecycle group!

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    Thanks, crazy. I'll put it on my list. Is it called DC wire? BTW, do you guys use Freecycle? I was just offered some free chargers. I haven't picked them up yet so I don't know the specs yet, or how many there are but, the price was right! :hump: Most areas have a local group whose...

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    I didn't see the posts by mrmadcow and B2KS before my response to crazy so, thanks to all for the help! Too many volts = bad. Too many amps = not bad? I put 3 fans in the cool tube for the sake of being redundant so, it makes sense to be redundant with the power supplies, too. Hells yeah...

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    crazy, I did test one fan with the 5V charger and, thankfully, it worked. I was too pooped and frustrated to test the other 2 last night so I assumed they still worked, too but, I will do that after I meet some other obligations today. One problem is, the wires coming out of the fans are too...

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    OK, here's how I had them wired together in the first place. I had to tie the 2 to the left with another strand to the one on the right and then hook them to the power. The one on the right worked (pushing), the 2 on the left (pulling) did not. The volts and amps of the power supply and the...

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    Thanks, B2KS. That's how I had 'em hooked up to start with, when one fan was going but the other 2 weren't. By the way, my charger output is 19V, 4.74A and the 4 fans are DC 12V, 0.30A. Bad for the fans? I didn't want the clutter or the heat in my box but, perhaps that would be the safest...

    Computer Fan Wiring

    Could you helpful souls lend a hand over here? Thanks!

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    OK so, I redid the wiring like this: 1. charger to fan, black to black 2. fan to fan, red to black 3. fan to fan, red to black 4. fan to charger, red to red. Al B.'s illustration is better than mine. https://www.rollitup.org/do-yourself/4105-computer-fan-wiring-5.html#post119652 Now none...

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    Sorry for the dummie questions but, this setup is a threat to the charger, or to the fans? Because, noooooooo, not my precious cooltube fans! This is why I haven't turned any of it on for very long. I just read another 11 pages on using computer fans but, I'm still having the prob with one...

    drunkenmonk, I got the idea to use a laptop AC adapter to power SEVERAL fans from cyphercrash's thread .

    Computer/axial Fans & Laptop Power Supply

    Forgive me for spamming; this is a repeat of a question that I thought might get a quicker answer if it had its own thread. (I think) I'm all ready to go except for this issue and, since I'm out of meds, I'm kinda chomping at the bit to get my medicine cabinet going. OK, so ... I have a 25v...
