anyone running a carbon filter kit in a 2x2x4 tent?

I have one I want to grow a small Auto in but need a carbon filter to vent the smell. Anyone know if a kit small enough to stuff in a little 2x2?

Have a viparspectra “300w” led in it atm, about to buy a qb 135w v2 for it and ditch the blurple.

4" is about as small as they come, from what I can see the smallest is 22cm x 28cm.
You might be better building one custom and having it square but shallow so you lose less space.
Other option is inline filters , I don't know much about them but I know phresh make some. That way you wouldn't have the filter in the tent so it would take no room up.
Don't see a 4" option but here's a link so you can see what I mean. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141940842296

Theres a build in the diy forum where a blokes made one using a car pod filter, activated carbon and tape i think. Rather cheap build for a small space.

I run vivosun 4” fan and filter in a 2x2x5.5’. I have the filter hanging inside high up and the fan outside to save space. Don’t forget if your low on space in the tent you can just run the 4” hose into the top of the tent and put the fan and the filter outside the tent and blow through it. It will still work fine. Does an amazing job for $94 total cost. My tent wreaks inside, this filter blocks it all.

I fabbed a filter that I keep re-using by emptying the old carbon and filling it with new carbon, with new carbon filters wrapped around the outside. Does a great job. I'll detail more if needed.
Fabricated a new carbon filter out of an amino acid tub and a large plastic cup.
Drilled tons of 3/16" holes in the tub and cup sides.
Cut the bottom off the amino tub and placed the cup inside with a pantyhose around it.
I sealed off the gap between the two containers with foil tape.
Filled it up with activated carbon, granulated, and then put the bottom back on the tub with foil tape.
Pulled the pantyhose over the outside of the entire tub, then tied off.
Wrapped it with an activated carbon filter, with zip ties, to act as a prefilter.
Slipped it in my cab and damn...
The results are amazing, not even a tinge of weed smell from the exhaust.
Exhaust pulls super hard, even at low/mid speed on the controller.
Finally solved my issue of not wanting to sacrifice the space that a full sized carbon filter would take.

Nothing... I have diffusers all over the house!!! But then it only smells in the room, but its better to be safe than sorry...
What kind of diffusers?

Odor controll is a 100% issue for me and I’m looking for options to manage in case I get some smell moving around the house. Fyi I have a 2x2x6 tent with a big carbon can though I’ve never flowered a plant in it yet.
