Thats why they make fan controllers. A stable 7 degree drop during the dark period is beneficial. Unless you want to stand by your op and plug and unplug your exhaust and intake fans to keep the temp stabile. Might as well drop the cash and have electronics take care of it. Just plug dial and go.:hug: You dont have to be around to hear a beep, not to mention those arnt accurate for room temperatures what so ever .
Where can I get one of these fan controllers?

Just google it. There are 2 types of 110/220V "controllers". My personal favorite is the "In Line Thermostatic Cooling Switch", when the temps get up to your pre-determined temp the fan kicks on to cool the room(also comes in a "heating" model). Lux Products makes a REALLY reliable one. The other type is a "Speed Control", it controls the electrical current to the fan which slows or speeds it up (make sure your fan will work with a speed control first).

The ones that I use are Lux LV3 thermostatic switches. They are around $25-30 with shipping on the net.

Im going to ditch my old 175 watt hps system and upgrade to a higher wattage. Im thinking about getting a 400 watt hps and a 400 watt mh system.. one for the veg room and one for the flowering room.. or possible one of those 400 hps/mh conversion systems... limited budget here and i gotta keep it small.. how many plants can i put under a single 400 watt system?

If you are looking to save cash use florescents for your veg cycle.

the initial investment might not be that lower (you can take some T8 fixtures from home depot pretty cheap) but you have to think about the monthly bill. There is a BIG diferrence there.

i havent noticed a difference in my bill i started under 5 t8 2 bulb ballasts so its not a difference you go by watts not what kind of lights if i used this the total watts are like 320watts its almost the same as using a 400w hps i estimate it costs about 15 usd a month just for lights not bad when your set to get a pound of nugs.

I have a quick question about my 400w cool tube. I got it...and stupid me, I never looked to see what size it was...I was overly excited...lol.

So it comes in...and I just assume that it's a 6". So i go get all the 6 in. ducting and 6" fan...take it home...guess what. The cool tube is like 5"...right in between?

So...should i Just try to jimmy rig it with the 6" ducting? Or can I actually get 5"?
