speed controller, i had this one it worked really well.
Cheers Doc. I had a peek on u tube and other than the wooded box thing ( which I'm Not hanging in tent ) or one of these. Since my 5" ruck is overkill in the 1m2 I'm thinking the speed controller will be the way to go. What size fan did yu have this on? will i need to check volts ect? As in the right size/power?
How the hell r u anyway girl ! Been a while....

Gentlemen, a question about my new flower setup I just flipped on yesterday. 600hps with digital ballast with large enclosed glass hood, my virst venture outside of CFL / T5's

How close is to close to the canopy before I start losing to much light to the outer edges of my tent? Im doing a scrog in a 2x4 tent and have the screen filled around the outer perimeter

Flipped to flower yesterday, installed the light Set the ballast to 75% dim (so 450 watts Im assuming) and took careful note of the temps/humidity when I flipped on the light, started way up say 20", felt I could go alot closer, 16" canopy felt breezy and comfortable with my hand under it, moved it down to 14", still comfortable, temps @ 78*. And a sensor put right out in the middle of the tent, no shade, was only 82*

So the enclosed hood must make a huge difference, and my exhaust fan was full tilt with a good breeze being pulled into the hood. But if I drop the light to 12" I feel I am almost shadowing the edges of the tent with it being 4' wide.

I plan on giving the plants the full 600w and putting the ballast to 100%, but last night was just a test really, surprised how low the temps were, lower than my T5 setup even

How would you guys handle the light height for this?

it depends on the room and cooling....you could almost let them grow to the glass. Your biggest problem will be light burn. I have some plants within 8" from an open hood under a ushio bulb with no problems....6' X 10' , 8' ceilings, room with 12,500 btu of ac running 2-600's and a 1000 de, which is too hot.
Notes on the double end. Good production, but it is an open hood and it has hot spots and it creates a tremendous amount of heat.....requires tall ceiling and fans to help displace the heat...soon to be replaced by 2-315w cmh's.

:peace:

hi greenjambo. I thought this was terrific! it is super easy to use and to just turn it to dial the speed up or down. Simply plug your fan into the controller outlet and it worked on all my 4 inch and 8 inch inline fan. It did not work on a strange bathroom fan that i had, but that thing was wierd.. so i think it should work with most inline fans. Yes as you are in another county then me, check the volts and what not. Ive been well, thank you, but a blood vessel burst in my eye last night for some bizarre reason, no idea why. the white of my eye is a bright red blood color. Someone told me that that is the first sign of turning into a zombie. How bouts you? you good i hope.

Lol , maybe you right Dawg. After extensive examination,.in preparation , I have narrowed down my list of choices to these. I selected the highest %'s. From a huge selection of pure co2 Vape oils...Although the La confidential is only at 87.8%, I got it last time and it was great. The chemdawg looks to be the highest at 96.1%so that's in the bag 4 sure.

Hey @Dr.Amber Trichome hows the taste on those CO2 oil pens? Is it like a normal vape where you get taste on exhale?
