Distance from a 150watt HPS

hows the smell from your box aintgottabhwd?

now that you say it i do see the vent....... but i think it should be at the top* hot air rises..... co2 stays low, along with the cooler air.

i'll be excited to see your set-up, i had looked into those bread bakers myself, but i use a closet, my temps haven't been a problem. if i grew inside in the summer i would definatly have a cab.

god speed.

last question whats a CAB?

a cabinet.

Im designing a carbon filter to go on my cooltube like a cap. Ill pics eventually.

If you search on google DIY cooltube theres tons of good designs, also Al B FUct had a thread about cooltube but couldnt seem to find it, although he still has pics of his cooltubes in his gallery.

whats the point in having a cool tube if it's not being vented to the outside of your cabinet? you should have air inlets and outlets to keep your temps down.

I know you cant see it in the pic but the fan is a small squirl cage that blows out the back. It's not a closed system the air comes in the bottom also out of view I believe(wrong bottom right) thu the tube and out. it's in a dark bedroom, if you were going to ask about light leaks.
keeps er purfect in there.

right on, looked like a nice set up, and i know pictures don't always give the best overall view.

have fun with it!!!!

My 400 watt is around 20in away, but it could be closer with better air flow I do believe.

im starting of thinking of just going with 2 rubbermaid containers and a few cfl lights instead

Yeah CFLs are nice, just takes a few. They do stay much cooler though. I like good combinations of HIDs and CFLs.
