This speed controller works really well. I have a 4" inline fan that gets really loud on full power and this will slow it down to a hum. You don't need the fan running full power until they really get stinky, so you can at least keep the sound down during the early stages.

Just one, might add another~ not sure yet.....and I have been looking at low odor plants like northern lights. But that's my question, I want to dial it down, what size down to, without hurting my plant? I want her to have proper air circulation during flower, but dont need a friggin jet engine.
I do have a controller, even on medium it is loud. I think i might have gotten a shitty fan, shouldnt be this loud.

Wouldn't worry bout smell with just 1 or two plants to be honest.. u could def get away with dialing it back u could use that ona stuff around the door to ur apartment and u should be find I know people always worry bout smell but unless u got a dozen plants I wouldn't stress it to much.. another thing is to keep air moving and don't let it stale up and u should be find.. imo.. ✌

I like your thinking! I have 2 oscillating fans inside her tent. heat is not an issue, actually its a little low all the time, runs 70, and not worried about humidity, that runs 25 and i have to keep it up all the time with little tricks to get it to 50. yeah, i really want to return this fan and filter i got on amazon, its pissing me off. would attract landlords attention over the smell! LOL

Mine came with one also. Even the low setting is loud and moves a lot of air. This controller will take it down to a few rpms. I needed a happy medium between the original low and dead low. This gives it to me. Just fyi, not pushing it.

I'm running simple 150 cfm fans 6" from Home Depot. They work fine and cost me like 35$.

Ok so I went to the store today and had to change up my room it's been constant problems on light distribution proper set up being able to water easy enough and I finally fixed and changed out wood and built some new shit. So here's the new set up. Finally I think this will be my veg room as is for now on.
