Hotwire. Thank you for not abadoning me like you said you would, and typing that up with very good descriptions. I have it working now. I guess the problem was with the connections on that little rectangle thing. After I took it out and used wire connectors, it worked like a charm. No smell, no heat problems. THANK YOU for all your help. That post should be put on the first page in the instruction manual thats included with it to help electrical noobs like me

yo hotwire..again..:P I got my new S&P 200 in yesterday, wired it up, works fine. I have a couple of questions though. You have the 200X right? I got the 200(the motor says 200 on it too) but it has plastic fan blades. On the S&P manual it says the 200 should have metal fan blades, and the 200X are plastic. Do you think I should call and ask what's going on, or just stick with what I've got? The 200 that I ordered is supposed to have a ground wire and metal blades, but has no ground wire and plastic... what do ya think? And I really do appreciate all of your help thus far.

Attn staff: hotwire deserves to at LEAST be even or somewhat positive on his REP for all his help in this thread ALONE. :)

nuggs - I think you got a 200x from the sounds of it. I would agree with onehit that the plastic ones may be quieter but it's your fan. You might call just to ask out of curiosity.

I have both a normal inline one. The Active Air hydrofarm, and the S&P. I cant use the hydrofarm one because its WAAAY too loud, and the location of my grow. The S&P one works great. Its possible to hear it through the doors still, but when the computers and fans are on in the room, its hides it perfectly. I also use insulated duct

I was thinking about the ducting. Insulated seems like the way to go for these. I am just starting my grow and have ordered an S&P 4" for cooling. I was messing with my lights (1x400 watt HPS) in the tent and there just is not enough heat to justify more than say 100 CFM. Look forward to trying out the fan!

I have the 4" model, it's a pretty nice little fan. I use it for intake since I have the 200 for exhaust. Seems to be a well built machine! Good luck with your grow klmmicro.
hotwired - I think I'll just chill on this. I'm glad I actually got a replacement. Now I'm hoping that MAYBE I can find a capacitor for under $20 to swap out on the bad one, to see if that's it. That would be a cheap fix!

Klmicro. Actually, the 6 inch one seems to just work perfectly for my 400W closet. There are two settings, one around 220 another around 300. THe 220 one wasnt strong enough, temps rised to about 90. The 300 cfm seems to just work fine. My size is 3x3x7

Thanks jnuggs! I am looking forward to it. I am a wee bit rusty overall and definitely no indoor experience. What cap do you need?

That is exactly what I was looking for OneHit. Sounds like 200-250 CFM is about perfect.
