I don't care which you buy. You said you are on a budget. Budget and Mitsubishi don't go one in the same. I don't care about the brand.. What is important for you to understand is.. If
You are using double ended bulbs you will need a MINIMUM of 24k btu for 4 lights.. And 36k btu 6 lights. The rest of the info is here say and do with it as you please. But this is a fact and if you think an 18k btu is going to handle it you are mistaken. Using 2 indoor units in a 6 light sized room is a waste of money.
If you have wall fans the air will be properly dispensed

I just ordered this 24K unit. It was in that e-bay top ten, a 19 SEER Energy Star. I phoned them and the 7 yr warranty is legit. They said if I order by phone, from Compton, CA to Oregon would be 5 biz days.

This is Senveille out of Compton. I was talking about this company in the beginning of the post. They have a Aura model also and it caused me some confusion for a while... I see that you linked me to a 15 SEER 5yr warranty. I do like that someone is talking about actual units. I do want to buy american made if possible since I decided against a Mitsubishi for now.

If the issue here is cost... Go on craigslist and buy a new no name 2 ton for 800 bucks. You shouldn't pay more than 1000 bucks for a two ton. Aura , ideal air, solius systems.they are all made in China it's all the same shit . Your not taking anyone's information , your looking for approval, ask your dog. My dog always thinks my ideas are best

like said above.. These are not meant for indoor gsrdens and most likely the warranty is bullshit. Aura is a small company and in my area so if you bitch enough you will get whaT you want. More Valid of a warranty IMO . Not to mention they know it's being used in a cannabis Gsrden and don't Have a problem sending there people out to hook it up

Yea but I've seen my 3 ton a/c hooked into peoples houses also. @patrickkawi37 are you super positive that 24k can't be used in a garden? Im not calling you out at all. I am interested in those as well. Being an a/c is the biggest cost of a new room build usually.

I said that I would not buy from my local store because they are rude and severely over priced. It is the only store around because I live pretty far in the woods. If you can show me a system that can compete with Pioneer or Senvielle, I would be interested in seeing it. I need to be able to buy online or phone. I am not going to my local HydroFarm dealer!

Call aura on the telephone. They are a small enough company that they will help you directly.. They did for me... No hydrofarm supplier needed

Mongo if you call the brand AC and say that you are using it For an indoor Garden im pretty sure that will void warranty. I am not positive. I do know that if your dealing with ideal air or aura or a company through the hydro store they clearly know what its for and understand your time constraints better

I think that I will talk to Senvielle tomorrow and see what they have to say about a cannabis garden.

They are located in Compton, Cali. I dont think that they would mind.

If you pay over 1100, your over paying.

Thanks for the advice.... as I found some good reflectors with a bigger footprint, I just dropped a couple lights (to 4). Those, plus an inline fan/filter, 4 oscillating wall fans and (possibly) an 8 bulb T5 oughta take up around 20 of the 24 BTU. They tossed in 25' of copper tubing that I'll need, which normally cost $60. At this point there's only 4 plants close to flip, and if I'm functional in 2 weeks, there'll be another 6 ready soon after.

I don't mind admitting my mistakes. I just don't want to admit to the same mistakes twice.

I figger that's what lying is for.

Here is Aura's website... They do not have prices, I would have to call them.
http://www.aurasystemsonline.com/aura-air-conditioners

Here is a link to a shop that has better prices than the magazine... I bet it is pretty close to what they will quote me on the phone!
