regular carbon filters vs brand names

so i found a compatible filter for my tent i think http://www.ebay.com/itm/6-450CFM-Hydroponic-Air-Carbon-Filter-Odor-Control-Scrubber-for-Inline-Exhaust-/290958072427?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43be73da6b, but i was wondering if mountain air and phresh filter are worth getting???!!! i cant really have the smell get out ...its already stinking a lil bit and there not in flower.... thanks for the help!!!

I bought one from ebay that looks EXACTLY like that one and it work like shit bro. For real
Just add the extra 10 bucks and get a good can filter. You'll love it. I do.
That cheap shit I got from ebay I left setting storage

can filter? What about a phresh or mountian air?

Don't skimp on stink. Phresh.

I have one similar, it's on the last leg of the second grow with it and I have never
had a smell outside of the tent.

I have a larger Can-Filter, and I run a smaller Phresh filter. One thing you don't want is for someone to smell your grow. There are just better ways to save some cash, smell control is not one of them, you know. You don't want to be sitting in jail with regrets about spending a few extra bucks on a filter. I personally like the Phresh filters over any other as they have a tighter pack, and seem to last alot longer. Peace out.

I love my mountain air filter. I have the four inch and didn't need to buy a flange for it, it hooked right to my fan perfectly. Which ever brand you choose don't go with the el cheapo model. Piece of mind shouldn't be underpriced and overlooked.

Good Luck and Happy Growing.

Have you considered ona gel?

Ona gel is an ok compliment to a carbon filter, but not a replacement. I use a homemade filter and it works fine for me, but I use ona gel when I need to open the door and work on the plant. If not using my home built, I would get a reputable brand, not worth the savings if you do not know what you are getting, particularly since you need to get something done right away(already getting smelly)

Worth every pennies!!!

Get 6 inch because it will fit well with your light tube or whatever.

so would u put that up aginst a phresh carbon filter ther has got to be a reason they cost more? can some phone give me a good link to 6" filter

Here's a link for inline Presh filters, and the regulars that you can either push or pull through.http://www.plantlightinghydroponics.com/phresh®-filters-c-76_348_1089.html Good prices, and fast shipment. I can say from personal experience this site is top notch, and you can e-mail or call them, and they will help you out in a second. Peace out.

I used a Rhino filter and Ona Gel with Ona fan fitted to the pail...not a hint of smell outside of the tent. Had the carbon filter drawing smell from inside the tent, had the Ona with fan outside the tent. Worked perfectly.
