I might be ditching my plans to use CFLs before I even start. I can get double the lumens and use the same amount of juice with a 400w HPS/MH set up. I planned on using a 4" inline fan anyhow that pulls 160cfm in my 44 cu ft room. Now that im using a cool tube should I bump my fan up to a 6"? 380cfm is kinda overkill for 44 cu ft but ill be pulling through a carbon scrubber and i might be running the duct from the basement up the chimney so maybe i need the extra cfm. Also.....ive only got roughly 4.5' of height to work with. Is that going to be a problem with HID? My hydro tub is 12" tall so im down to 3.5" of grow room.
Kinda torn on ballast too. Mag or digital? what brand? dimmable? I want something quiet and doesnt mess with RF. Same with my fan....I want it quiet! Any brands to stay away from?
