I build my own cab below and i feel it meets my needs better than the bcnorthernlights.com. I actually like the Supercloset better than the BC unit and it is half the price. I actually hate the how short the bcnorthernlights is. I wish it were 2-3 feet taller.

Mine was probably about the same cost as the BC but i have veg, flower, and mother. Better carbon filter and fans, more control, better lights, 2 continual monitors for tds, ph, temp of res. CO2 with PPM and automated temp control. And it doesnt look like "an appliance". I does take almost a whole day to build though.

Well you cant hear the fans but the airflow you can definitely hear from the outside of the box. Not loud though just like a low hum.

You cant see but i have a co2 controller that puts on my fan exauset when my cab hits 92 or humidity 60. So that fan only comes on like 5 minutes 5 times a day. The fan that runs the light though is on at about 300cfm when lights are one. I think if i put a vent on the light tube to exhaust the air out of the room it will be nearly silent. I can hide the vent with just a box on top looks like it is just sitting on there. I may do that after i move.

No matter what you do when you move over 200 cfm in a room, you are going to hear it.

it would be nice to have a sticky with everyone showing their homemade cabs so all the newbs didnt have to make so many threads
