It’s a 80x70 cm space. It’s a full length cupboard.

About to put 2 4inch fans in for air in and air out.

you will need a bigger out take fan than the intake, a carbon filter will reduce the output of the extraction fan so you will have smell leaking if both fans are the same size. you need negative pressure in the cupboard to get rid of the stink. . id go 5 inch out take.

and for lighting i think a 275watt invisible sun led would fit and be cool enough in the cupboard.

So I’m debating upgrading my cheap eBay special to a Mars Hydro TS600

Can anyone give me any info on these lights? Are they worth it?

Help please

Sorry jess high jack ya post but wiz got a mate looking at the Mars hydro TS3000 they claim its like a 1000HPS lamp like £370 squids cover a 4 x4 area what ya thoughts on mars hydro................?

They do the job

:puff puff: :puff puff:
sp first the ts600 is labled just that ts600 no labled as 600w , it only pulls something like 150w max atthe wall ,, now for a 2x2 space i say one light is plenty 4x4 space you will need 2 of them for sure ,, the lower rated like the 600- does not have a dimmer wich for some is a down side , for me my tent is tall enough i can raise light way up when my plants are really small ,, other option is to have a dimmer at the wall , for me the price is on point for what ya get , ive had mine runing since christmas every day with out issue , its done well for me both in flower and in veg , i for one will be buying a mars hydro ts1000 or bigger mars for my next light purchase 100%

We can get swept away by our thoughts,,or learn to step back and see them with clarity.
Easy to forget its a choice

Check out Invisible Sun LED or Spiderfarmer. A buddy of mine is loving his spiderfarmer 2000 and tons of members swear by Invisible Sun @GMO
