haha all good bro I'm a sparky this whole setup draws less than 5 amps... I have an AC infinity T8 with carbon filter and silencer for exhaust all ready installed above the light and an S8 with silencer for intake on it's way.Make sure you are not overloading the breaker - add up the AMPs on everything plugged in.
Get yourself some exhaust/filter - AC Infinity- Cloudline T6- is my favorite
You'll have to 'damp down' the S8 so you get some negative pressure in the tent. Took me a bit to find the right balance for that, but once you do it'll be solid.haha all good bro I'm a sparky this whole setup draws less than 5 amps...

I feel like you're right I've emailed where I bought it from to see if I can swap it. they only come in 3 and 10 gallon unfortunately. I need something in the middle. I just like how they are plug and play setup comes with everything to auto feed and drain away.Those ten gallons are huge for that tent. you’ll never use all that area in root mass. Go with the 5 even maybe 7 gallons. You can do the ten but to get the full use of the pot you be crowded in there. Especially with the Diablo. Great light!
Yeah I should have went with S8 for both fans as the T8 is temp and humidity controlled so I'm thinking it will play havoc with negative pressure when ramping up or down. I havent played with the controler yet but I'm hoping I can set it to one speed with a ramp up if temps get to high. Or maybe set a minimum low fan speed that's always above the output of the S8. I'm sure there will be some trial and error should hopefully get it right by the time they start to flower.You'll have to 'damp down' the S8 so you get some negative pressure in the tent.

Its less that since the T8 and S8 have the same CFM, and you'll always want your exhaust fan to pull a little more than the intake. Also, If you want a minimum fan speed setting you'll need to move to the Controller 67 to get that feature (TBA, a better controller all around). Then you can not only set minimums and maximums but also have control over the transitions more fully. But none of their current controllers will allow for different settings for each fan plugged in, so whatever you set happens to both.Yeah I should have went with S8 for both fans as the T8 is temp and humidity controlled so I'm thinking it will play havoc with negative pressure when ramping up or down.

I get it gotta do what you gotta do. Like I said you can use that size, just flip them at the right time and you won’t have to much of a crowding issue. You just won’t be able to use the full capacity of the pot but you can definitely use the ten gallonI feel like you're right I've emailed where I bought it from to see if I can swap it. they only come in 3 and 10 gallon unfortunately.

yeah I dont plan on running the s8 intake from the t8 digital controller as well, just the exhaust. The s8 comes with a standard variable speed control. Hoping I can set the exhaust to one speed with a ramp up if temps increase and I'll just match the intake to make sure theres neg pressure. I have an aircon to install soon so hopefully that will enable me to run steady constant temps and the fan speed wont fluctuate so much.Its less that since the T8 and S8 have the same CFM, and you'll always want your exhaust fan to pull a little more than the intake.

In the end, I manually restricted the duct on my intake S6 to make it balance better with my exhaust T6.
You can't. There's no 'minimum speed' on the standard T controller. It either off, or its on. Also, as it does its automated thing, unless you're standing there with the tent and ratcheting the intake on/off or up/down there's no good way about it.yeah I dont plan on running the s8 intake from the t8 digital controller as well, just the exhaust.

hmm interesting.... makes sense.You can't. There's no 'minimum speed' on the standard T controller. It either off, or its on. Also, as it does its automated thing, unless you're standing there with the tent and ratcheting the intake on/off or up/down there's no good way about it.
The best thing to do is throttle down the actual amount of air coming in the intake and hook both fans up to the same controller. The T series and the 67 both allow two fans. For what you're looking to do, you'll want the Controller 67.
