light proofing a window banger

[packerfan79]

Title says it all I get light in my room through the ac. The back of the ac is inside my garage. I was thinking of building a shroud around it. I had planned on using a 6in blower to pull outside air and duct it to the back of the ac. I hope this works since spring has arrived in stupid socal. I hate this shit hole state

you ever get this sorted out?

Yeah I built a box around it. I left 6 in on each side and open in the back. Worked fine, but like I said in my message I moved and shut down. so I am potentially looking to get something going once it cools off some. I am feeling nervous about running a larger op. I guess if Edison didn't turn me in for 1000$ bill, they probably won't for 3000.

Ran into this a while back

Not sure if you saw this or not, but I started building one to light-proof an intake/exhaust fan (little 2 fan window unit) that I have between my 2 flower rooms. Haven't finished it yet, but it look like a solid idea.

Edison is in the business of making money, pay your bills on time and you have no worries... although my bills have peaked at only slightly above $900 during summer, so take that fwiw...but I've had plenty of buddies that have had 2-3k elec bills.

they will fuck the people that steal from them though.

don't be stinky and don't be sloppy and it's smooth sailing...be weary of "friendly" landlords, especially commercial....it's better to let them find out the hard way then to have them be the ones that turn you in right outta the gates.

Yeah I will find an out of state landlord.hell wheez I may just copy your Idea but on a 40 footer. I have to take a high interest loan to do this right. I think I should be able to do a 6 light flip-flop in a 40 footer.I really want to run de or vertical. I can get down with vertical, never could get a flat garden to yield the way a vertical does

The AC box thread has some good info in there if you were open to that option.
