Those of you who are using 120mm fans and carbon filters how many inches of carbon do you have? If I design the center to be 4" should 1" of carbon be enough? So total of 5" wide

Check out mine in my A Medicinal Refridgerator
I have a DIY filter for my exhaust with a 120mm fan. Too stoned to remember length, and it's dark period.

There's a great DIY for a filter in the DIY section. What is the CFM rating of the fan? Some 120's are 30CFM, some are 200 lol

Mine is 135 CFM, but more is better. Haven't seen a 200.

What would you use to power those things?

Very easy. The power supply from old cordless phones is good. The output is written on them. You'd want 12V and the A at least the spec or over it. Like my 120mm is 12V .6A so the power supply has to be over .6A or it'll over-work it's self and fail sooner than later. I get mine from the Rescue Mission or Goodwill. I found a bunch in the garage from old electronics stored there.
