My box is 26"H and Im using the scrog method

Here is a pic of the inside the exhaust fan is on the upper left

you could make it face a corner or something

how stealth are you looking for it to be? there is a DIY carbon filter that dims the light coming out of the fan a serious amount. It will look fishy though. Ill look for the link.. but that would provide both a light "dimmer" and a filter come bud time...

I wonder if you mounted it on the inside would your fan have enough power to pull enough air out of the pc box to keep the right temp... IDK theres my 2 cents

make baffle flaps

got the same problem bro i don't know what to do either thinking about just putting the carbon filter on the back of it

You paid that much and it wasn't light tight?? Wouldn't that be part of being stealth. The fear is not so much the light out, it's the light in. You don't want to interupt the sleep stage. You'll get hermies.

Yea unfortunately I did but i made a quick fix to the only light leak. I just took an angled air vent ripped and modified from an old pc and just mounted it over the fan. Cool thing is that i reduced all the light and didn't lose any airflow.
