For one of my PCs, the carbon scrubber takes care of the light proofing on the exhaust. On my current PC grow, there is a box that makes a right angle with any light that escapes the exhaust and is non-reflective on the inside. Any escaping light is absorbed or simply reflected back into the cabinet.

does anyone have an internal solution to light proofing? i do not want to have abunch of random crap attached to the outside of the PC case that would look suspicious

the same kind of thing can work on the inside... just as long as air can be sucked through the trap and right angles are made to where light can't be reflected out, you'll be set

Nice lookin PC Kid. How'd you light proof and get all the things in the back so nicely? maybe you have a better method than i did. Hows your temps run with the HPS and how much did it run you? any grows yet? I'm curious to how it'll yield for you.

NICE LOOKIN CASE!!

Keep it green

Hey fellow PC growers, I'm in. :wave:

It's a work in progress. I'll be running 4 42W bulbs above a glass heat shield with 1 110 cfm fan blowing out the top above the lights, another out the bottom with a filter, and another in the side as an intake.





Once it's light proofed I'll be adding these babies. Chrystal (top), GS (bottom left), and Mandala HB (2 on bottom right).


Peace.

Never got around to posting here so here's my first attempt. I probably waited too long but I switched to 12/12 a couple of days ago.

I don't know if this info has been posted yet, but I thought it would be helpful for those who don't want to deal with wiring their fans and want a handy power source for them.

Most computer cases come with a Power Supply Unit (PSU) but need the proper connection to the motherboard in order to start properly. But did you know you can jump a PSU safely with just a paperclip?

Super easy. What you are doing is basically connecting the "PSU start" wire with a ground wire. I did it recently while I was testing a PSU and it is perfectly safe. Even if your PSU is very old, as long as it's ATX standard the wires will be the same no matter what the color.

Happy jumping!
