Hmm I wonder if the other sites list it at 94 because they assume that people won't take the SP drop into account. I certainly wouldn't have before you explained it to me. Well, anyway, sounds like the TD-100 and can 2600 are perfect for my setup. Thanks for your help.

Ok awesome. 50 cfm is fine with me as long as it's enough to keep my box cool - the box is 25" W 15" D 58"H with a vented 150w hps, do you think that will be enough? The specs on the 2600 say the max CFM is 94, but 50 is still alright? I guess it's mostly important not to go over the max...

So any idea whether that TD-100 will work well with a can 2600 filter? I can't find the 2900 anywhere. The 2600 says the pressure drop at max cfm is: 180pa/. 75wg . Not sure how to read those numbers.

Great info, thank you so much. I'm definitely not set on that filter, I just picked it because I thought it matched up with the CFM of the TD-100x, whereas the other filters I was looking at rated much higher CFM. But I wasn't taking into account the SP. I would rather stick with the TD-100...

I'm going to be growing in a plastic storage cabinet measuring 25" W 15" D 58"H, with a 150w hps. The cabinet will be inside my closet (with sliding doors). I need to keep this reallly stealthy, with little to no sound and no odor. I'm thinking about getting the TD-100x fan and pairing it...

Ok I guess I'll go with the 250w cooltube. Any other opinions on these CMH (ceramic metal halide) bulbs? Some people over at icmag.com swear by them. They supposedly give out less lumens than the hps but the spectrum is better. They run on a standard hps ballast (not the digital ones...

Interesting, this is the first I've heard of these bulbs. From what I've read I understand they will work for both veg and flowering? Do they run cooler than an hps? Would you recommend 150 or 250w for the space I'm growing in?

I'll be starting a grow in this plastic cabinet: Amazon.com: Outstanding Solutions Compact Midi Shed: Home Improvement . Dimensions inside the cab are approx: 25" W 15" D 58" H . Should I go with CFL, 150 hps, or 250 hps? If I do hps it will most likely be cooltube. Also, how many plants will...

Yeah, I remember in my first grow my 150w hps got so hot, I wouldn't want to put that thing in a plastic box. Hopefully with a cooltube and proper exhaust it will be ok this time to put a 250 or 400. Question about the cooltube - I would need a fan pulling air in and then another one to exhaust...

Will probably have one hps, either 250w or 400w. I'll probably get a cooltube. The closet doors are not very secure, they are sliding doors and dont even slide all the way to the wall. I definitely will need to make the cabinet lightproof. Thanks for the link willygoat - those tents are nice...

Also, do you think there is any danger in using an hps in a plastic box like the one i bought? Would it melt the plastic?

Cool, thanks. How difficult do you think it would be to light-proof that plastic cabinet I bought?

Thanks, I'll check out that section. The rubbermaid thing won't work for me because it isn't stealthy enough for my situation. I ended up buying this one - Amazon.com: Outstanding Solutions Compact Midi Shed: Home Improvement - it is a good size for my closet. The only thing I'm worried about is...

Hey, This is my first post here but I've been over at icmag.com for a while. My first grow was a couple of years back with a 150w hps in a closet. I'm now planning for my second and I need it to be super stealth. I'm not a heavy smoker so I don't need huge yields, but it would be nice if I...
