Stelthy's 600W Hps Project! (New-Cab)

[stelthy]

Here I have overlayed the 2 pieces and fixed them in place (together) with the small cable ties... - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

Then I took my pliers and cut out a load of cross sections within the grid to give me a better sized mesh to use a my SCROG screen - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

Then I decided it was a good idea to cut around all the obsticles so the screen would fit better, I decided that a horizontal screen would probably be better for my 1st go at SCROG because it offers a more even light coverage and allows me to move the cool-tube higher or lower when needed - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

I've not yet put the screen in but will do this later today - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

I also bought another bulb... A 250W HPS so thats another thing - I can tick off my list of things to buy - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

My 'LIST OF STUFF TO BUY' reads as follows :-

600w MH bulb
6" twin lamp cooltube/ make fixture!

Best timer's suitable for a 630w max load (inc. lumen boost facility)

Yeah man no-one is gonna be a killjoy on this one, at the end of the day (once finished) I'll own one of the best cabs around and be churning out shitloads of ultra high quality buds, A subtle hint that only the best seeds etc are going to be used even if I have to use money from my Credit Card to buy them And my familly WILL be very well looked after through profits later on down the line I would surgest start small and the MRS should be cool with it and then over time (after 1st harvest ) allow the 2nd or 3rd lady to enter your room etc I hope she cool with it - STELTHY

I received the window tint through the post this morning, But am still waiting on the Perspex to make the color-coded CCTV window.. I hope it comes soon, Thats another milestone soon to be out of the way! I need some more 'Brown-Bread' sound deadening mat and then thats the top section all finished minus some wiring and attaching the RHINO Carbon Filter, Phew! - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

I have installed the SCROG wire meshed screen, I used hooped screw's meant for hanging net curtains and a shit load of small cable ties to fix the screen too the hoops.

Its is laying horizontal at 13" from pot level and fits perfectly I am still waiting for my Perspex to be delivered and need some money to get the rest of the bits n pieces, I am also in a dilemma as to whether to get a twin cool tube, modify the one I have to hold 2 lamps or buy a different styled air cooled hood which promises better light output and coverage partly due to its angled side walls, I'll try n find a pic, I would be interested in your thoughts on this, For good thoughts I will reward you with REP! cheers - STELTHY

Sunbeam Supershine Air Cooled Reflector

The Sunbeam Air Cooled SuperShine Reflector has a unique air-cooled design which means it can be placed close to your plants without over-heating them.

The Supershine reflectors inline duct design with glass sealing plate achieves rapid heat dispersion and maximum cooling.
THe Supershine has a dual parabolic 'gull wing' inner reflector which creates even light distribution and maximum lumen output.
The Supershine is by far the best air cooled reflector we have ever seen and in light test conducted by *** **** ** ***** the Supershine out shines all other reflectors.

 

[stelthy]

Or this one? ...I like cooltubes but if these bad boys deliver more light per foot take up less space and still allow a decent air cooled flow to pass over the lamp this maybe a better option, If I do choose to go down this route I am thinking I will most likely go for this 2nd one due to its angled reflective sides and the fact that i can only position it one way around. What do you think ? - STELTHY

 

[stelthy]

Despite better light out-put will these reflectors put out MORE, LESS or THE SAME amount of heat even whilst being cooled in the setup I have ??? - STELTHY
