I am going to be pulling cold air from my attic to cool my room when it gets to hot .... vent will kick on when room gets over 78 and kick off at 70f, where would be the best place to place the end of the vent that cools my room when it gets to hot??? the vent is just a dryer vent with a fan attached to it to pull cold air out of attic.... also where should I put the thermo cub outlet? it is what kicks on and of when things get to hot ....

If you are exhausting from the top of the room, intake from the bottom. Not sure about the outlet.
im pulling air from the bottom of the room and taking heat out from the top and sending it to my attic my attic is cold as fuck so I am going to bring cold air in from time to time not all the time, room only over heats to 85 F but my plants hate that so I was just placing the cold air in take up top to bring down the cold air, just don't know the best blace to put the end of the vent I will make a chart so u all can see. im going to keep my thermo cube over top of plants but in the shade

ok I see now. In that case why not at the very top even above the light. Cold air will fall so that should help with overall cooling. Good luck

lol...ok now I get it....still 1 or 2 since it's cold air. Good luck
one is from left to right and the others is up and down so is you was to say green 2 pink 3 it would be directly over the plant but lower in the grow closet and if you was to say blue 1 and baby blue 4 it would be up agents the left hand wall like it is now but down at the very bottom

I would say 1 or 2...you have (2) 2's....so 1 or the Yellow 2...that is my vote since it is cold air.
so pink 2 and yellow 2 that would be directly over top of led light, I was thinking the same thing, it will keep my led cool and my plant.dont want it to close to my plant kuz then it will blow cold air directly on plant before thermostat had a chance to cool off, I am placing thermostat on bak wall directly in center over plant.... im using cfls 2 them things get my room hot as hell I never have heat probs in veg just flower... I know 6 40wcfls and a 200w sd led light is a bit much for a 2x2x8 space.. but I got buds 2 times the size then when I just used led light only.. they was way moor stronger to, had to lower the amount of food I gave them but had to water moor often

Ok then either blue 1, orange 1, or blue 1, yellow 2 make the most sense to me.

yeah that works too. The only reason I was going left is so it has further to travel left to right until exhaust.....so, it would have more time to cool the area.
