duno what to do

ok so i got c02 bottle and regulator nothing flash or digital got a nice space and was going to run it AGAIN with exhast ect untill i got my co2 anyways ive decided not to use my co2 yet untill im 100% ready to use il cut the crap got 5 x 600w and its gona get hot hot hot so to comensate for this and seal the room COMPLETELY was thinkin of running cooltubes to take heat away from room BUT its gota be like 30 degrees for c02? from what i read can any1 tell me if im going in the right direction b4 i spend and will i need a dehumidifyer in there never needed 1 before as was always able to keep it at 30%ish (humidity) when using ehaust fan

u really want them around 24 degrees,try the cool tube idea ive never heard of it>>>

cool tubes are great. will take away alot of heat but that means alot of air moving around 300 cfm per light. they will help with co2 you wont have to vent your room as often.

yeah so if i use cool tubes to deal with heat how often do i need to empty the room? 1nce 2wice a day? ii think at the end of the day as co2 have to return to normal and best to leave them round it wether it be 18 or 12 hours mite have to get dehumifyer any1 know of a decent size cheap but good model in uk

alreet toon army! nice to see another geordie on RIU.

i would look at lights that have enclosed case rather than the cooltube the reflectors are gash n if your running 5 x 600w your going to want the maximum light spread you can i guess?!

i just got a bitching dehumidifier for £69 http://www.plumbworld.co.uk/cosmos-q10-dehumidifier-2141-17854 but you might want one with a temp switch, i didnt realise you could get them with a temp regulator and wish i had now but the one in the link works a treat

hey buddy first geordie ive seen round on here i was thinkin bout the huds but tubes are cheap and at first look i could line them up in straight lines with no resistance to airflow the hoods will defno give beta much beta light coverage tubes are 40quid you know of any cheap hoods glad to speak to u buddy

you mean line all the cooltubes up so all 5 are running down the same exhaust?! that would be kool as, but would the heat not be through the roof by the time its run past 5, 600watters? im having problems keeping the temp down in my tent with just one 600w ( no cooltube tho )

hood £44.95 http://www.basementlighting.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?page=1/PROD/REPA

good to speak to ya too, as long as we dont mention the footy

oi oi broon toon , if your lookin for a decent priced selection of hoods u can cool mate i found this place on ebay that does cooltubes for 35quid delivered - they are the 5" edition which means they will support up to 600w ( but they do a wide veriety of them and im sure would be sound offering a deal)
hopefully the fact they are french wont bother you too much haha
Let me know how it goes coz im looking to order 1 soon as iv got some cash

here that link

hope its some help , and if not just tell me to go awaaaaaay man.

was thinkin runing 2 lines, 3 on 1, 2 on the other got fans to do it from previouse things those hoods are good and the same sort of price as cooltubes now you have given me a dilema the tubes are straight and offer no resistance to air or not much do you think the hoods will be as streamline hmm what to do but a need to decide so i can get started

without putting the two side by side i couldnt say. but if the things a sealed cycle of air then it should suck like a Bigg market slapper, cost you a bit more than a blue wkd mind
