Could brew a ton of alcohol. 1 pound of sugar = 1/2 pound of alcohol and 1/2 pound of CO2. 5 gallons of beer = 3-5 pounds over 2-4 days.

Now if I only wanted to start a moonshine business.

Yes odor is a concern, it's going to be on it's own 20 amp circuit, but I want to hook it up to a cap universal power module then to the gchc-1e (not sure if I remembered the letters right but I'm sure you know what I mean)

if u are worried about smell u should know this info

the window shaker ......has a dehumidifier ......the water that it collects and drips is stinky and will set off drug dogs .......no ifs ands or buts the doggie will start barking and alert .........u need to protect yourself ........so where the water drips u need something there like Rose and Jasmine flowers ........or some hot peppers

jasmine flowers block the dogs scent ........the roses have thorns ......and hot peppers are just that hot peppers so doggie smells them his nose messed up for a while.............u might even think about applying dog repellent to the yard and then post it (u must post a sign warninng them yard was treated other wise u can get assult on police officer )

Not gonna work then.
A.c. draws air from room,pulled it over compresser which is slowly releasing pressure,chilling the thin metal blades the fan is pulling room air thru..this cools air AND the unit..good air is returned,and the now hot air used to chill the unit is in return pushed out the back.
ALL that air smells like your grow.
You're about to realize why indoor pot is kinda pricy.

The ac will not be hanging out of a window but through the grow room wall into the rest of basement that that has window open during warmer months, probably with Jasmine flowers nearest closest window

I have rigged boxes to the exhausting airs of ac, and hooked a carbon filter to it works flawlessly. Carbon filter can be easily diy as well.

Here how to build a ghetto mini split.
Get a box-to-hose reducer from Lowes/home depot.
Tape it on top of a square unit,yes the half in gap is needed...use HVAC tape.its aluminum and made for this application.
Run hose from reducer to room,and add a booster inline fan half way..
Now,you need a remote switch cord.this is a cord that plugs into a circuit,but has a switch and ANOTHER cord attached to the switch,and its run to whatever activates the power(your cap controller) this isn't completely necessary,but is if you're running more than 1200w on the same circuit with ONE switch on the circuit..too much,you'll fry your controller.
Plug your a.c. and booster fan into the remote switch cord,plug switch into controller..
Run hose from a.c. into your room..and your done.
Leave your controller in the area it should reign over,and set it to what you want,the a.c. should be on max cool and fan always,its no longer controlled by anything but its temp sensor,so it needs to stay on low. outside that area the a.c. unit sets,cooling that(unscented) air and blowing out that unscIMG_20150326_142423.jpg IMG_20150326_142440.jpg IMG_20150326_142403.jpg IMG_20150326_142456.jpg ented exhaust,while pumping cool air into another room.

I fully recommend those el cheapo inline fans on eBay..they're $30..
Not powerful, so not to be used to pull/push heavy pressure like a vortex,but they work for moving air well,like a unobstructed hood fan,or I used one for the a.c.exhaust above, it was run thru the wall and needed a 3ft additional length, creating back pressure causing the unit to blow warm air..I added a 6in booster, no worries..also tied it into the remote trigger for 100% efficient use.
