I decided to wire the 2 Grow Shelf mounted CPU fans to this variable transformer, the transformer allows me to control the speed of the fans. I also connected up my spare air pump and air stones etc.. the RES is now full of bubbles, happy dayz - STELTHY :leaf:

I removed the old shitty seal around the top area.. fixed the door in place with masking tape and pre drilled holes before screwing it in place, I have no plans of opening this top door, so I sealed it with sealant and black tape and stapled it in place, now its alot more air tight - STELTHY :leaf:

The main cab door has major light leeks, I fixed this with insulation strips and some external black tape, and made sure the tape was securely in place, result = 99% no light leaks - STELTHY :leaf:

I grabbed a spare bit of Chopper Stopper from my local Hydro Store and cut it to the size of the Grow-Shelf, I then stapled it in place and tidied the edge with Silver Duct-Tape - STELTHY :leaf:

I utilized an old fan speed controller, I had once bought off E-Bay... and never used. This will be perfect for synchronizing the In-take and the Out-take fans as well as giving me control over the actual speed they spin at :) - STELTHY :leaf:

Originally I had a DIY 'cake bowl' and 'washing machine pipe' pulling cold air in from my boarded up chimney.. Time for a change I think :)







I bought various bits of 4" ducting, and tried to assemble the intake as best as possible, and also tried to keep everything as small and as STEALTH as possible - STELTHY :leaf:

Although the duct joins etc fit, and look set to work well, I was not happy with the distance it stuck out from the back of the cab... So....




I got busy with my Hack-saw and trimmed the join and the elbow, this allowed me to fix a ring in the intake hole 1st, then attach the elbow.. The ring made for a tighter fit once the elbow was lodged in place, then I just needed to apply some multi purpose sealant - STELTHY :leaf:

I bought a small 4" Odor Sok to stop any back-drafts and also filter the air for dust n bugs etc before the air comes in contact with the inside of the Grow Cab - STELTHY :leaf:

I fastened the Odor Sok in place with a Jubilee clip, and note: The Odor Soc and elbow sit alot closer to the cab now,(modified) - keeping it more stealth, I also added 2X 6" Flanges one to the in take and one to the out-take, just in-case my mate ever want to run a bigger lamp and needs to cool it better, it'll require minimal modding and he can then run 6" ducting :) - STELTHY :leaf:
