Growing in a modded Ikea Kallax - Stealthy, Silent, Power efficient

Blog details

Hi there ;)

A tent was too obvious in my living room, regular ventilator etc too noisy. Also, I was aiming for power efficiency.
So I modded my Kallax into a grow tent for autos.

Here are the main specs:
  • Ikea Kallax
  • 3/4 ARCTIC P12 PWM PC fans, optimized for static pressure (1800 rpm, 56,3 CFM/95,65 m³/h, 0,3 Sone, ~1,5Watt (!!) at 12V)
  • Sanlight Q1W 2nd gen, 50Watt
  • Diamond foil for light reflection
  • 4 car air filters, taped to a box, outside
  • Various other stuff, tape, isolation, anti vibration rings for fans, etc

Fan speed can be adjusted. ToDo list: pretty it up, may replace car filter with proper growing active carbon filter if not sufficient enough.
