Hi all

Just wanted to let you all have a look at my new cab. The cab and reflector are 100% custom built at home and I am very proud of it all:mrgreen:

The dimensions are H 200cm W 100cm D 70cm (built to house 3 plants) . I got x2 200w CFL's in there (one of each spectrum). The big fan I have mounted on the wall is pulling fresh air in from outside and feeding it in, and the x2 80mm fans at the top are pulling the stale air out.

Let me know what ya think boys and girls:peace:

I would use the big fan as your exhaust fan and the two smaller fans as your intake. You want a negative pressure in your growbox not a positive pressure which it seems to me you are creating

I wanted to get as much fresh air into the cab as possible and the big fan does a great job. The reason I hav it sucking in instead of pulling out is that with the CFL's there is little to no heat therefor the is little to no hot air in the cab that needs taken out so I used the smaller fans for that.
