Led mini fridge

[Outdoorhydro]

Today i started a new grow box. Inner dimensions are 28"x17"x15" (HxWxD). After cutting a 4.5" hole with a whole saw, i ran 4" aluminum ducting through which fit vert tight. I have a 195cfm fan inside blowing out. My intake holes are 5/8" each and in the floor. I used the bars on the back of the fridge to hold the shelves as a holder for the lights. The light is a 300 watt LED made by vivosun. Full spectrum 12 band 134 actual watts. I'll be making in deep water culture I set up for this. I will also have a carbon filter put on it once we transition from veg.

Ok!!! Looks like you're ready!!!

 

[Outdoorhydro]

Very stealth. This is with it on . The operating noise is less than when it was a working fridge.

Looks good. In the first pic you have some dangerous wire ends hanging out. At the very least they need to be taped, preferably wire capped. Other than that I like it. Read up on lst if you haven't already

I really like seeing these little builds that take a lot of on point planning,measurements and thought.i don't think a lot of ppl understand/appreciate how much forethought go into a build like this.nice work

Usually when you see a micro stealth cab you can see its destine to either fail or disappoint.
This is looking good. Nice to see a proper fan in use as that's the first hurdle most fall at.
Well done chief.

I like the concept! I'd find a place for that fan outside the box. I mounted mine in it's own box surrounded by sound proofing material. Because I'm evacuating air from such a small space, my fan speed is very low. The only sound I hear is air through the filter and it's quieter than the mini beer fridge right next to my box.
I should've drilled holes in the bottom of my box for airflow, damnit! I have plenty of space for it. Great idea.

I've got some clones in the humidity dome. I'm going to be putting in a few more intake holes because when the door gets closed it reduces airflow by about 40%. The bin is 8.2 litres(2 gal roughly) and will be lightproof.

Too short for leds?
Esp for 300w?

 

[Outdoorhydro]

It's 134watt actual power , but i do want this box to be as light intense as possible. So, it should be a trial and error.
Here is the light intensities.

I will be keeping the light 12 inch's away for the most part

Good to see another fridge out here! Mines a keg fridge for vegging out seedlings or autos or whatever.

 

[grilledcheese101]

I used 12 sockets and led bulbs

2 fans mounted parallel and facing oposite directions (creates a vortex)
(Itll make baby tornadoes out of joint smoke)

1 inline 4" fan mounted where all the freeon shit was. Vented to my window.

Put this clone in 4 days ago .. some burning on the old leaves,but we'll see as the new leaves grow in.
