well i have 2 100w hps bulbs im ganna set up in a small grow box that is (30x19x34) thats 10.5 cubic ft..
I took the back off and but cardboard covered with foil tape...yeah i know everyone hates on foil but the tape is not bad if you keep it from crumbing. then i cut holes in it large enough for the dryer exhaust tube I planed on using .. first one i have is a stiff one that i cut holes in for the lights to shine thru..
and planed on mounting the tube like this
and planed on using pc fans to exhaust out the back of the box... i know im ganna have heat problems thats y i thought of that.... but not sure if that would work that great either dont pull enough heat out... or it wont put out enough light becuase its inside the tube... i am also thinking if that dont work that i can use the reflectors that came with the lights and mount them both like this
or i just thought of this as i was writing this... what if i use the same tubing and place a short tube out the back with a pc fan on the end. then cuting the tube so the reflector will slide right into it and have the bulb out.
i dont know if anyone had done anything like this before and can give me a few tips but if not then im ganna go ahead and test them and see whats best...
