Here's my box... just 2 questions

I posted on here a few weeks ago about a different box, well, I scrapped it and made this one. Three questions tho.... ok maybe more than that. 27.5" is the height from the top of the DWC tote to the carbon filter, not the whole box.

1. Do you think I could fit the Sun System 150w HPS in there and grow 2 plants comfortably? Size of light: 15 1⁄4" Long x 7" Wide x 4" Tall. Will my 4" canfan/filter combo suck the heat (if any) off the top of the light like that?
2. Should I get a 2011 100W 3Band Lighthouse Blackstar 2w LED Grow Light instead and keep my CFLs? (more CFLs not pictured.

3. Im not sure about the size and placement of my passive intake. I was thinking on the door, just above the height of the DWC tote. Should it go on the left side?


After I solve these few issues all I gotta do is line my walls with my mylar. This should be great!

your 4" will more than pull out all the heat generated by a 150w HPS. I've never used LED's and for some reason all of the LED grows that I see are better than HPS grows seem to be written in a "salesmen-like" pitch...

you're going to want to flower very soon because of height, and maybe LST or SCROG to make sure you keep the height down and actually get use from all 150 watts.
