Environmental Controllers w/Co2 setup WHAT ARE YOU RUNNING

Hello all,

I've been studying about environmental controllers, timers etc and what I would need to run 4 600watt 240v lamps, a Co2 Tank setup. I have a sealed room approx 10x10x7 with separate venting systems for carbon filter and light cooling.

I've looked into using C.A.P controllers and Sentinel Controllers. I find that while they are all expensive I can get a Sentinel CHHC-4 with a CAP light controller and that will control everything.

Any advice on what controls anyone is running and or what would be the best set up for my scenario. Thank You in Advance !


Keep On Growing

I have a C.A.P. Air 3 with a Hydro Inovations ppm controller. It works good. I have the exhaust fan side set about 3 degrees higher than my fan controller for my cooling system so if somethong gets to hot it'll shut off the co2 and start venting the room. I also use it to manually purge the room. My room tops off with co2 about every hour (16x6x7).

I like the sentinels...

Ya I saw those Hydro Inovations Co2 Meter really cheap and simple considering its preset 1300-1500 but that would work perfect prolly.


Ympb what do you use to run your lights? just 120v into power strips with timers? or do you have a CAP light control box or something ?

I have a heavy duty 240v timer.

Well after more research the all in one sentinel wins me over i think ill get a CHHC-4 or atleast the CHHC-1 in combo with a CAP air MLC4XT light controller and that should do the trick nicely.

I figure the Light MLC4XT will cost around $120 and the CHHC-4 will be another 500=600$ but I think it will be worth it in the long run
