that box is legit man. it looks really good. i just made my box, still gotta make holes for the back piece for my fans. then still gotta put a door. all i need is some hinges for my door, reflective stuff, fans and ac adapters and couple little stuff, i could all get them tomorrow. still gotta figure the wiring. and can you give me a site for reflective stuff?

i just woke up, wake and bake. and im boutto leave to the store in abit, would this be good for reflective stuff or will it melt cause of the heat of the light bulbs - http://milo.com/st24025
and im bout to get those 2 fans that i posted not the led one. and could anybody tell me where i can get ac adapters, even if its online but the one that ships fast, i saw one link and it takes like 20 days. i would like to build this in less than a week, cause my seedling already sprouted and is chillin on my window :P

Those CPU fans should keep your box nice and cool, I guess it depends on your lighting but you shouldnt have enough heat to melt anything. As far as an AC adapter, stop by any electronics store and just get a 12v adapter they are easy to find.

so i should just tell the abcwarehouse dude or bestbuy dude, that i want an 12v ac adapter? and i bought a few 6500k cfl lights, 100 watts each bulb? then on the package its like 23w? ani bout the reflective staple tab insulation, i was wondering how to mount my power strip for the lights? should i just use like super glue or what? i got some spray adhesive, which im gonna use to stick my insulation. all i need left is the 2 fans im getting and maybe 2 extension cords and adapters and it should be good.

This is the type of transformer I used to power my fans. Be sure that the voltage of your fans and transformer are the same. http://www.summitsource.com/product_info.php?ref=1&products_id=1161
I hope your build is working post some pics when it's done.
is that charger compatible with the fans im getting? and how long would i have to wait before i get the item shipped to my apartment? and yes ive been wanting to post pics but it still looks shitty and its not done.
