i'm using vantech tornado case fans for my pc box. the only problem is at full throttle they're loud as fuck. but if i turn them down, i can keep my temps ~77*F no problem. i modified the diy carbon filter with a pencil cup with the carbon prefilter sheets and a solo cup. and with those, i can...

no copy+paste? what kind of phone do you have? i had read through yours..several times haha. it is a pain. i think i've got it near perfectly dialed in. just loud. i'm thinking i'm gonna drop down to 3 bulbs so i can run the fans quieter. oh yeah, something i found at radioshack..it's a...

well, it's at least a lot lower then they had been. i gotta get the fan speeds right. trying to find the right combination of noise level and temp control. the 92mm was set at a pretty low speed, i left it running all night with the lights on and it got up to 82*, which i suppose isn't bad...

so some pics. before, with the windshield reflector. i guess it would've been okay if it wasn't one of the ones with insulation. and after, spray paint and white duct tape. temps are stable and where they should be. the fan on the rack i might end up taking out..we'll see. and 1 of the seeds i...

i was using the chrome duck tape (the brand, i know it's duct tape ;)) anyways..and i was going to use it but i just ran out. thanks for the help

yeah, it's a tornado. got the 92mm and 80mm. i have the 80mm hooked up to a 5v ac/dc adapter for an old phone, that's much quieter. and then the 92 is hooked up to a fan controller so i can adjust the speed on that. ripping out the insulation and seeing how that goes. oh yeah, i forgot the...

as the title states, what are you temps inside your case with lights on? i know it should be 72-76*F, but i can't get mine close. ambient room temps are around 68*. i was running some tests and with my thermometer's outdoor sensor hanging in the middle and the thermometer one on the 'floor'...

zombies: destroy the brain. and just be faster than the person next to you if it comes to a footrace. if the world ends, it's been a good ride. and what a story for wherever we go after we die. 'hey, what's up. how'd you get here?' 'heart attack..you?' 'the f'in apocalypse'

^ aluminum foil? throw it away. go to kmart/walmart and pick up one of those metallic windshield reflectors or emergency blankets. they're cheap and reflect much more light than aluminum foil; not to mention foil will create hotspots

^ watch the video, he says all it takes is about $20 of supplies..2 rubbermaid containers and the worms may be the only things you would need to buy. maybe some window screen, but i'm sure there's something you could use to substitute if need be.

i read an article on lifehacker tonight about building your own worm box. (http://lifehacker.com/5882478/diy-worm-compost-bin there's a video and more details about the build there). my main questions about this were if anyone has built something similar and for how much 'stuff' you put in, how...

very true. but even with the rarely occurring bad advice i may come across, i learn what not to do. so it's all good :joint:

just came across this site and it's a wealth of information (some bad, it is the internetz after all, but mostly useful and helpful). i'm building a pc box for my first ever grow. i'll make a new thread with pics in the proper subforum once i have construction complete.
